About me

Manchester born Wendy Richardson trained with the Northern Royal School of Music. From her early professional days as Britain’s youngest theatre organist, she has built a career which spans over 30 years, gaining a reputation as being a formidable Musical Director, who settles for nothing less than perfection in every performance.

After being recognised with several regional awards for musicianship, Wendy was soon filling prime spots for the BBC. Her ability to achieve such a high level of professionalism has allowed her to build a CV which any musician would be proud of.

After spending time playing keyboards for major cruise lines and hotel chains, Wendy has brought her unwavering enthusiasm and huge repertoire of music to the smaller and more intimate platform of Lounge/Cocktail pianist. With an eclectic mixture of standards, Funk, Soul and pop, she is becoming a feature of many corporate and private events.

client testimonials

We wanted a pianist playing ambient background to welcome our guests and we could not of chosen better. Wendy was beautifully presented and brought a glorious white grand piano. I have since booked Wendy to play for us again.

Wendy set the musical tone perfectly for our corporate reception. She was enjoyed by everyone. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending Wendy.

After searching for a Singer and pianist we were recommended Wendy. She provided completely self contained entertainment. The Singers were amazing and provided both early evening background and music during the meal. We couldn’t have been more delighted and our guests were more than happy.

Annually we have our care awards which we obviously love and look forward to. For the past couple of years we have trusted or pre dinner music to Wendy. She always does an amazing job. Would 100% recommend.

I would like to reach out for all you have contributed to making our band at Holme Lacy a great one. Your work ethic and passion is admirable

“A hugely talented musician and band leader. You have been a great asset to Warners. Thankyou”

Wendy played piano at our wedding and we couldn’t have found a more perfect wedding pianist. We chose songs that were special to us and Wendy played them perfectly for our ceremony and then went on to play during our Wedding breakfast. Our special day was perfect. Thankyou Nina & Amri (Wedding at Astley bank Wedding Venue) 10/10

We had our wedding on 18th June 2022 and Wendy kindly stepped in on very short notice due to a previous pianist cancelling. Wendy was incredibly friendly and professional and very talented. She was able to play the songs we originally wanted which was amazing and we would highly recommend Wendy! Thank you so much you made our day extra special x Daniel & Katie Cropper (Wedding) 10/10

I hired Wendy Richardson to play background music during my daughter’s baby shower in June 2022 and that decision really put the icing on our special occasion cake! From my initial enquiry Wendy was amenable and cooperative which made the organisation and execution of the days events so much easier; she even agreed to being part of a musical ‘Guess that tune’ game which all my daughter’s guests thought was a wonderful touch and I’d agree…lots of fun. Beyond her friendly manner Wendys professionalism and talent are outstanding, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again for future family events. Wendy is a fabulous keyboard player and genuinely lovely lady which made the baby shower a very memorable afternoon. Tracey (Baby Shower) 10/10

Hi Wendy, Hope you’re ok! Sorry for the late email (we’ve just got back from Honeymoon today!) but we just wanted to say a huge thank you for your services on our wedding day – you made the day feel so relaxed with your music throughout the reception and to listen to it was just absolutely amazing – we literally couldn’t be happier! We also received loads of compliments for your skills and music choices too!
