A welcoming sound
Jazz standards, swing, familiar classics and pop songs accompany your guests’ arrival. Irina adapts volume and musical character to the room, allowing conversation to flow alongside the atmosphere of a live performance.
Drinks receptions & dinner
Piano for receptions and dinner
Zurich · throughout Switzerland
A reception is about people meeting. Irina’s piano gives your drinks reception or dinner a musical setting while leaving room for conversation, whether in a hotel, restaurant or private home.
Music that follows the evening
Dinner music can begin quietly and become more animated between courses. Speeches and service are considered in advance. For a more concert-like highlight, SwissDuo brings cello and piano together in distinctive arrangements of classical music, film themes and pop.
Ensemble and planning
Irina performs solo piano or with Sandi Toka Nova as SwissDuo: cello & piano or cello & organ. If the venue has no piano, an electric piano can be provided by arrangement. An electric grand piano is available on request at an additional cost. Share your date, venue, schedule and musical wishes so that the ensemble, equipment and proposal can be tailored to your occasion.
Your questions
Can you play while dinner is served?
Yes. Sets and breaks are agreed with the hosts and venue team to fit the meal and speeches.
Does live piano work in a small room?
Volume is adapted to the setting. We discuss room size, the instrument and any amplification needed in advance.
