Save musicians, entertainers, speakers, and services, and they’ll appear here.
I am a solo pianist offering a variety of services including but not limited to:
classical piano performances with a large range of repertoire (chopin, beethoven, bach, scarlatti, etc.), original piano compositional performances, piano lessons, and piano accompaniment. My solo acts typically take place in settings such as weddings, parties, concert venues, graduations, churches, and recital halls. However, I am very flexible and am open to any performance related commisions. I'm in ownership of a portable studio grand keyboard that I travel with but am comfortable in utilizing instruments provided at the performance location.
I look forward to working with you soon!
Best,
Julian
Julian Veney has wowed me with many videos of his stylish piano performances. His swift switches between keys and body movement can't convince me of anything other than how into the music he is. It helps me (and I'm sure the audience) escape with him. All of that said, it is a different experience to perform with him. Julian was great at coordinating the mechanics, movement and techniques of our piece so it all looked smooth as a final product, not to mention his work ethic. He had us spend a massive amount of time practicing our piece and would not stop until it was perfect. You can tell this is what he puts in everytime he performs, wether it be pieces to be later posted on Youtube and other sites, or more serious recitals and commissions.
He played so well at our wedding that our guests thought it was a recording! It made the ceremony so much more knowing that we had him playing. Would definitely hire him again!
