Background music on the piano can take any form - popular, classical, soul, jazz, blues, rat pack and Indie/Rock tunes.
In my experience, it works well having a mixture of all of them! Most weddings will always have a wide range of ages amongst guests and between them a wide taste in music. A mixture ensures that there is something to enjoy for everyone.
My repertoire is constantly changing with prominent new music currently in the charts always being introduced, as well as well over a thousand older tunes that can be included. Below is not a full list of my repertoire, instead, it is a sample of a few tunes from each style to give an idea of the range of music that is available should you decide to book me for your day.
