Dueling Pianos For Events

“…2GO where no duelers have gone before.” Dueling pianos, when delivered well, is a tremendously engaging entertainment concept that incorporates high-spirited music of all styles, improv comedy and lively audience interaction…and, as you would expect, a double dose of great piano playing. Originating in New Orleans some 60 years ago, dueling pianos has recently enjoyed a burgeoning popularity in taverns and nightclubs across the country; yet, this two-piano concept is seldom seen outside the smoky barrooms of its birth. But, with innovation and determination, Dueling Pianos 2GO founders, Cristina and Van Walraven, are succeeding in expanding the appeal and marketability of dueling pianos. This on-going effort has produced major successes where duelers had darned not venture before, such as Disney cruise ships, elegant socials, fancy weddings, ticketed concerts and large corporate events. We at Dueling Pianos 2GO are dedicated to bringing you absolutely the best dueling pianos entertainment on the planet, with the highest standards of professionalism, courtesy and service to our clients and to our industry allies. Kindly look over the materials presented here, and let us know if Dueling Pianos 2GO can pizzazz-up your party!
