Biography - About us

Christopher is a professionally trained pianist for hire with many years' experience playing piano for weddings, birthday parties, corporate events, anniversaries and other special occasions. With a first class music degree and several performance prizes under his belt, he has a huge repertoire and many styles at his fingertips. From smooth jazz to relaxing classical music, contemporary pop to feel good rock and easy listening classics. Christopher is an expert at judging the ambience and mood at any gathering to create the perfect musical backdrop.

As part of his service, he can provide a top quality portable piano and can enhance this further with a Baby Grand Piano Shell if required. This gives the illusion that you've hired a baby grand piano and adds a real sense of grandeur to your special occasion.

Testimonials and reviews

"Christopher was absolutely fantastic at our wedding in July. He made the day perfect with his extensive choice of music. He played beautifully throughout the day and we would highly recommend having the full package of ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast as it completely set the mood. So many guests commented on him during and after the wedding and in particular how it absolutely set the scene whilst waiting for Carly to come down the aisle. Thanks again, could not recommend enough."
Carly Richards, Crabbs Barn Wedding, Essex

"Christopher played at our wedding in May, and was spectacular. We've had wonderful feedback from our friends and family and I'm so glad he was recommended to us. The music topped off a really magical day and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to others. I still get goosebumbs thinking about walking down the aisle to Pachelbel!!"
Eleanor Miller, Wedding

"Christopher was splendid. He played at our wedding in May and provided the perfect repertoire to suit our tastes for every part of the day. Christopher also accompanied our friend who sang us down the aisle. It was sublime. Family and friends all remarked at how wonderful he was. We would recommend Christopher highly for your whole day - in fact for any elegant occasion.
Hannah Price-Davies, South Farm Wedding"

"Just wanted to send you a big thank you for the wonderful accompaniment that you provided last night for our 10th Anniversary event. The music you played was perfect and really helped to make the great atmosphere in the room. Thanks again and hope to work with you again at some point in the future."
Business Anniversary Event, B&W Mechanical Handling

"Thank-you for playing so beautifully for my 50th birthday party. We really enjoyed hearing your music and the selection was perfect. Thanks also for Grace and Happy Birthday and the Beethoven. Our guests found it a real treat to have a live musician and many of them remarked how much they had enjoyed it. You helped to make it a truly great occasion."
Matthew Hunt, 50th Birthday Party
