Why not take the classical route by hiring Eugene Portman to be your classical pianist for your wedding ceremony, private party or corporate event in Sussex, Surrey, London, Kent, Essex and throughout the UK.

Classical music is a popular choice for wedding ceremonies often followed by a jazz ensemble for the afternoon/evening. However a lot of classical music can be too intrusive and therefore unsuitable for a wedding ceremony - or even the gathering of the congregation. The list below is compiled of pieces that Eugene has played which seem to add to the ambience of the proceedings.

Sometimes a combination of classical and contemporary pieces for your ceremony or event is requested. Given enough notice, Eugene is more than happy to learn any favourite music or song.

What if the venue doesn't have a piano?

Eugene can bring a digital piano which has a fantastic sound quality - all the mp3s on this page were recorded using the piano pictured here.

A portable digital piano is ideal for events which require music to be played in more than one location, including outdoor events.
