"We booked Dave for a small family event and were delighted with how well it went: He has a great repertoire (from Mendelssohn to Metallica) and accommodated several special requests. Dave was also great company during the evening and I would certainly be very happy to hear him play again. Highly recommended! "

"We booked chris to play at our wedding last week and we could not have asked for more. From our very early interactions he was responsive and engaging and you could feel that it was important to him that we got what we wanted from the day. On the day, Chris arrived early to set up ahead of guests arriving for the ceremony and played through until the wedding breakfast was finished. He was the complete professional all day. Polite and courteous with guests and staff and nothing was too much trouble (including moving the full setup between 3 different rooms as the day progressed without a single complaint). His playing was beautiful, adding a subtle magic to the day, including a special request or two. And we had so many comments from guests. Ultimately we had the best day and Chris made a huge contribution. We could not recommend him highly enough."

"We booked James to play piano as part of our wedding ceremony. He was friendly, professional and a very talented pianist with an wide range of song choices and even catered for our own requests for walking down the aisle and processional. Many of our guests commented how lovely it was to have James playing when they entered the venue to set the tone of the day. Would 100% recommend booking James for your wedding/events!"

FAQs about hiring Pianists in Merseyside
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
How to hire a pianist?

Do pianists take requests?
Yes, many pianists are happy to take song requests. Encore's pianists often offer a wide repertoire of songs, from popular music to jazz standards, that they can play but they are also usually able to learn new songs relatively quickly. Whether or not a pianist is willing to take a request will depend on a number of factors, such as the complexity of the song and how much time they have to prepare. However, most pianists are happy to accommodate requests when they can, and they will often appreciate the opportunity to play a song that the client will enjoy. Please bear in mind if the song is not part of their repertoire, this may result in an extra fee to cover the time spent practising the song for the performance. enco
My venue doesn't have a piano - what should I do?
Most pianists will have a keyboard and speakers that they can bring to your event - some may even be able to provide a piano shell to mimic the look of a piano (however this will likely cost extra). Nowadays keyboards can sound just as good as the real thing, so don't let not having a piano stop you!
I want my pianist to sing as well. Is this possible?
Yes! Many pianists will sing and play piano - they can also do a mixture of accompanied and unaccompanied music to provide some variation to their performance! They'll most likely mention this information on their profile, as well as have links to videos showcasing their skills.
What kind of music can a pianist play?
Most professional pianists will be extremely competent in a wide range of styles/genres. It's basically up to you what you'd like them to play. Give them an idea of the types of music/songs you'd like to hear, and they'll put together a set of music you'll be sure to love!
