Henry Tozer's profile picture
Singing pianist
London
Public liability insurance of £1 million

“A voice like velvet… I was transported to a cocktail club in 1950s New York… Henry Tozer delivered classy entertainment on a level that I’d never experienced before.” With a smooth baritone voice coupled with matchless piano skills, Henry Tozer offers a level of entertainment beyond any other modern day performer. A former graduate of the University of Cambridge, as well as a winner of the BBC Young Composer of the Year, Henry Tozer possesses the rare combination of mastery in both jazz and classical genres. He performs extensively throughout London and Europe, alongside his songwriter and session work. With an extraordinary level of professionally, Henry knows literally thousands of songs by memory - all of the Great American Songbook, the jazz standards and classics as sung by Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett and Nat King Cole, as well as the entire Beatles repertoire and many other evergreen songs of the 50s, 60s and 70s. He also is a connoisseur of Romantic & Classical Piano music, performing favourite works by Chopin, Debussy and Beethoven, among others. One of Henry’s special skills is his exceptional ear: he is able to hear a song once and then play it! He has superb communication and administrative skills, which he has consistently demonstrated and honed over his years working as a freelance musician, leading choirs, planning and executing concert tours and charismatically working with audiences. A recent tour of the music of Leonard Cohen was sold-out, with guests leaving the doors saying “it was the best concert I have ever attended!” If you’re looking for modern pop songs performed in a mediocre fashion, Henry Tozer is not your man. But if you’re looking for world-class, classic entertainment delivered in a manner that will elevate your event to another level, Henry Tozer is your man.

Henry Tozer has given two superb song recitals at St Mary’s Perivale over the past two seasons. He has exceptional skills both as a pianist and as a vocalist, and employs them to great effect in his performances. He has gained a considerable and well-deserved following locally for his concerts. I can recommend him unreservedly.
