You'll want to be sure that everything is perfect on one of the most important days of your life and music plays a vital role. The ceremony (as your guests gather, the entrance and exit, during the signing of the register). Choosing the right music for your wedding is often a bewildering experience whether you are having a civil or religious ceremony.
When it comes to corporate events, atmosphere is everything but arranging one can be a time consuming and daunting task. You will need to make the right impression, reinforce your company's values and consider the type of entertainment your colleagues will want. With so much entertainment to choose from this can often be bewildering, especially when you need to cater for a variety of tastes.
Live music adds a special touch to your function, so whether it's a birthday, anniversary, bar mitzvah or work party you'll want to create a great impression for years to come. Choosing the right music is essential and its very hard to beat the sound of a piano. Most styles can be played on the piano, so where other solo instruments may sound disappointing and struggle to create the atmosphere you need, the piano is much more versatile.
Why not offer your guests something with a real sense of style and book the jazz / swing ensemble 'Body and Soul'. It's a great alternative to a conventional function band and will give your event a real sense of distinction. The ensemble can play swing, jazz and popular classics and depending on the type of event and your budget there are different combinations that can easily be arranged.
If your venue doesn't have a piano I usually perform using my free top of the range digital piano (and a small professional monitor speaker ). The digital piano I use is sampled from the best concert grand pianos available and therefore sounds like a concert grand piano. It really does have an incredible sound.

Phillip played at our wedding in October and was absolutely fantastic. He played a great variety of songs and so many guests commented on how perfectly his performance complimented the mood and set the ambience for the day. Phillip was extremely professional and quick to respond to emails, and his performance really helped make our day special. We would thoroughly recommend booking him!

Phillip was a complete professional, he played a beautiful selection of songs during our wedding ceremony, reception and wedding breakfast. We had so many of our guests comment at how talented he is and what a lovely atmosphere he created with his music. We couldn’t recommend him enough, and can’t thank him enough for being so helpful, patient and professional.

I cannot speak highly enough of this man. Having worked alongside Phil in musical productions, his knowledge, skill and playing ability on the piano is right up there amongst the very best. A very pleasant and genuine man who is not only honest and sincere, but has a great sense of humour too. I highly recommend Phil to anybody that is looking to book him for any function such as weddings and anybody who is looking to book lessons to play the piano. A simply fantastic musician with years and years of experience!

Phil did such a fantastic job of playing at our wedding last year. As an experienced musician myself, I can safely say that Phil is one of the most talented pianists I've ever met (and a lovely guy too!). A friendly, professional, reliable service and I can't recommend him highly enough.
Thanks for making our day even more special.
