A magical musical experience
Dueling pianos is a form of live entertainment that typically involves two pianists sitting at two grand pianos, facing each other on a stage and taking turns playing songs for the audience. The pianists typically interact with the audience, creating a lively, fun atmosphere filled with sing-alongs, banter, and energetic performances. The performers have an extensive repertoire of popular songs from all sorts of genres. You’ll hear Rock, Pop, Disco, Reggae, Country, Jazz, Rock n Roll, and Motown, just to name a few.
Audience Interaction
One of the unique aspects of dueling pianos is that the audience can request songs and interact with the performers throughout the show. The pianists often encourage the audience to sing along, dance, and participate in various activities, such as clapping or shouting out song suggestions.
Where and when?
Dueling pianos shows can be found in various venues, such as bars, restaurants, and theatres and are often performed as part of special events or celebrations, such as weddings, corporate events, and private parties. The high-energy and interactive nature of dueling pianos make it a popular form of entertainment for many people.

Song requests
The performance is based on audience requests, ensuring everyone enjoys their favourite songs. We typically start with some great floor fillers to get everyone dancing. Request slips and pens are provided and placed on the pianos or at the front of the stage.
We’ll encourage guests to make requests, which will help break the ice between the audience and the perfomers, putting the requests in order to ensure a dynamic flow. We’ll also encourage the audience to join in on well-known songs and entice everyone to sing out familiar parts.
DUEL OR DUET?
While the name Dueling Pianos might suggest a piano battle, this isn’t entirely accurate. The entertainers often try to outdo each other with their piano skills, but the main focus is on working together to create an exciting atmosphere for the guests. You may also see them swapping pianos or performing together (four-handed) on one piano.
