Full Biography
Michael is a London-based pianist who performs solo piano in a range of styles suitable for events from weddings to dinners and corporate functions. He prides himself on the 100% 5 star reviews of his performances and will be sure to guide you through the process of deciding the music you want for your event and always delivers on the day with high-quality musicianship and professionalism.
Michael has extensive experience, having played at over 900 weddings and functions in his career so far. He offers clients the opportunity to be as involved as they would like in the planning stages, and can prepare requests and tailored performances; however if preferred, he can also confidently take care of the entire process with very minimal direction.
Michael is current resident pianist at the world famous Dorchester and Savoy Hotels in London, where he performs for afternoon tea, providing elegant and sophisticated music tailored to the ambience of these luxury hotels. He also works closely with many of the leading UK wedding venues including Elmore Court, Lillibrooke Manor, Old Marylebone Town Hall amongst others. Michael has also been featured on TV several times including a special performance of 'Experience' by Einaudi for Sky Sports in 2023.
Michael is more than happy to perform on a piano if your venue has one. If not then he can provide his own complete professional setup which includes top-of-the-range Yamaha keyboard with PA system and a baby grand piano shell. The piano shell gives the fantastic appearance of a baby grand piano but can be positioned and transported in any space. Michael is one of the few pianists able to offer piano shells in either black or white.

Chris G booked Michael Keysman for their Wedding • April 2024
“I cannot not recommend Michael highly enough. He was fantastic throughout the whole process. Michael took the time to prepare and play a not so commonly known song for the wedding breakfast entrance which made the day feel so personal and special. Michael’s technical skill, kindness and professionalism made him the ideal person to support our day and I cannot thank him enough. Thank you.”

Thank you so much Michael!! It was our pleasure having you perform at our wedding!”
Martin B booked Michael Keysman for their Wedding in Berkshire
“Michael was incredible when playing for our wedding breakfast. The sound quality of his setup is top-notch, his repertoire and audience engagement was fantastic and he even had people out of their seats dancing before we had a chance to start the speeches. His set was a highlight of our wedding.”
He added that extra sparkle to the success of the day
Krystyna A booked Michael Keysman for their Wedding in Gloucestershire
“We had requested Michael to be the pianist to play at our son's wedding as he had such a wide repertoire and it was important for us to have a mixture of different styles - i.e. classical, popular and jazz. Michael is an extremely affable person. He was happy to play all the pieces we requested from his extensive repertoire and all the guests felt really comfortable with him playing them during the wedding breakfast. He added that extra sparkle to the event.”
