Planning the performance

Dueling pianos work best when guests join in, so think about your crowd. A playful, high-engagement set suits a lively reception, while a solo set may suit a dinner or ceremony.

Share the songs that matter to you and any you would rather skip. If you want a custom-written song, ask how long the process takes and how many conversations it involves. Confirm piano or keyboard arrangements with the venue ahead of time.

A walk-through of the evening helps. Decide when the pianos should start, how long each set should run and whether you want guests to request songs. Ask what space a pair of pianos needs on stage and how the setup fits your room.
