B i o g r a p h y
Pieter Hoogland (1970) has been fascinated by piano music since he was a child. At age ten, he sat down at the piano for the first time when he began taking piano lessons. He studied classical piano for eight years before expanding his passion to include pop songs. He has since built up a broad repertoire
of piano music suitable for every mood and setting. Pieter regularly performs solo at receptions, weddings, or other celebrations such as corporate dinners or benefit events. Over the years, he has developed into an experienced singer, and his musical versatility has grown even further.
Atmospheric Repertoire
Over the years, Pieter has developed a beautiful repertoire of classical pieces, such as Chopin’s Nocturnes and Waltzes and works by Satie, Brahms, and Beethoven. As a musical counterpart, he performs pop songs by Lennon & McCartney, Billy Joel, and Elton John, as well as new songs by artists including Coldplay, Adele, and Bløf. In recent years, he has discovered the atmospheric “light classical” music of modern composers, such as the film scores for *The Piano* and *Schindler’s List*, and works by Ludovico Einaudi and Yann Tiersen. With a wide selection of music, he can tailor his repertoire to the setting and atmosphere of a reception, dinner, or party. You can choose between piano music alone or piano with vocals. In either case, he can perform over 200 songs.
Live Music for Every Setting
Pieter gained performance experience during stints in Mexico and southern Spain, where he played in various grand cafés. After returning to the Netherlands, he continued to perform regularly in restaurants, including in Leiden, where he lives. Pieter’s focus has since shifted to festive and formal occasions, such as weddings, receptions, and corporate dinners, as well as exhibition openings and benefit events. He has performed at countless venues, such as the Westerkerk and the Royal Tropical Institute in Amsterdam, Keukenhof Castle in Lisse, and Huis ter Duin in Noordwijk. He even provided the background music at the Ziggo Dome! He enjoys playing in a relaxed setting at an informal party just as much.

We really enjoyed it! We wanted a few songs to play during the ceremony, and in the end, we were able to choose the songs ourselves. Normally, only two song requests are allowed, but he rehearsed four anyway. He practiced these songs especially for us. We thought the collaboration and performance went very smoothly.

Awesome addition to my sister's wedding. Pieter created a romantic atmosphere during the ceremony, which turned into something more festive during the reception. We received a lot of positive feedback from the guests present, and we were also very happy with his music to make this day even more beautiful!

Pieter provided background music at a party for 55 people. He played music from the 60s to the present with occasional vocals. I enjoyed it. Highly recommended.
, Piet
Pieter Hoogland provided excellent background music at our 50th wedding anniversary party, both during the drinks outside and the dinner inside. He has a very extensive repertoire and has a good sense of the sound level needed without being overpowering with his music. It was easy to make arrangements with Pieter before and during the party. He is very approachable and flexible and also able to improvise as a pianist to accompany a performance. He absolutely contributed to the success of our party. We highly recommend him!

Pieter has given extra atmosphere to our open day. It was also nice that he had studied songs from our region. We enjoyed this day and that was partly thanks to Pieter!
