Photo of Sam Keily Sam Keily "Blown away! Sam was able to recreate my dream from two tik toks I sent him. He played Star Wars for all of our groomsmen and Abba for all of our bridal party!! Everyone complimented the music and Sam seriously listened to all of our requests and was amazing. I would absolutely book him again!" Based in Fort Wayne, Indiana (109 miles from Indianapolis) 1st March 2026 Chloe T. - Private Wedding Photo of Ralph Russell Saxophone Ralph Russell Saxophone "Ralph was wonderful! Ralph was amazing! He adapted so well to the mood of our party. He was able to play Christmas song lyrics on the screen so we could sing along at our Christmas party. He made the night a hit! He even stayed longer than planned because everyone was having such a nice time. Highly recommend him!"

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring pianists is $340, with prices from $110 to $900+. Pricing depends on the pianist's experience, set length and whether a venue piano is available or a digital instrument needs to be supplied. Pianists are a popular choice for background music during dinners, receptions and ceremonies.

The pianists for hire cover a wide range of styles including classical, jazz, pop, rock, blues, gospel, boogie-woogie and show tunes. Many pianists are versatile performers who can switch between styles during an event to suit different moments.

Hiring pianists is ideal for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate dinners, hotel lobbies, private parties and formal occasions. Piano music is one of the most versatile and widely appreciated forms of live entertainment.

Many pianists bring a high-quality digital piano or keyboard, while others may prefer to use an acoustic piano if one is available at the venue. A digital piano is easily transported and can be set up in most locations. Gig Heaven recommends confirming instrument arrangements when making an enquiry.

Many pianists are singer-pianists who can provide a full vocal and piano performance. This offers a wider repertoire and a more dynamic show than instrumental piano alone. It is worth checking each performer's profile for details of their performance format.
