Harry at the Piano

Harry Bentham is an accomplished Pianist & MC.

He performs at weddings, corporate functions and private events

We couldn’t be happier that we had Harry play at our wedding. Harry is more than just an amazing musician, he’s genuinely caring and so thoughtful throughout the entire planning process. He took the time to truly understand the exact vibe we wanted for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and he offered insights, advice, and suggestions we hadn’t even thought of.

What really makes Harry stand out is how invested he is in the process. Not one corner was cut, he worked flawlessly with our officiant, venue staff, and had been practicing our obscure special requests months in advance. If you speak to Harry once, you know immediately that that aspect of your day is completely taken care of.

If you need a pianist who is skilled, dependable, and truly invested in your day, look no further than Harry. We could not recommend Harry more. He didn’t just play music, he truly elevated the entire wedding experience.

About Harry

Starting at age seven it seems like I have always played the piano. I tried a couple of other instruments but it’s the piano that has always spoken to me. I love boogie-woogie, jazz and swing, I think it brings the music to life.

Performing for others is the icing on the cake. Sitting at a baby grand, I love seeing the joy on the faces in the audience, and I also enjoy the emphasis it puts on my role as a performer. I enjoy making every performance my best.

Director of Sales - Inn on Prince Hotel and Conference Centre, Truro

We hired Harry to play at an event the day before our wedding at The Halifax Club. Prior to the day, we had a couple of calls to discuss the style of music we would like him to play and he tailored his song list to artists that we liked so we could make the event a bit more personal to our taste in music. He played for about 2 hours and everyone loved listening to him play. We would recommend him for your event and would hire him again for our future parties. Thank you, Harry!
