Thanks again, <span class=\"test-author\">Leah and Mike<\/span><\/div>\n<p>In the late 80&#8217;s, a group of about a 6 talented entertainers, along with a some very creative business owners, opened the doors to what would become the most sought after entertainment concept of the new millennium: <strong>CONNECTICUT DUELING PIANOS<\/strong>. Little more than 25 years later, Dueling Piano venues were seen in just about every corner of the United States. How was this done? How has this concept thrived for so long? This innovative concept known as <em>Dueling Pianos Connecticut<\/em> has been passed down from Veterans of the <em>Connecticut Dueling Pianos<\/em> concept to a younger generation of Connecticut dueling piano players through vigorous training, both on-the job as well as one-on-one mentoring. Now, the Dueling Pianos concept is not only popular in traditional Dueling Pianos venues, it is also a hit at <strong>Wedding Receptions, Corporate Functions, Colleges and Universities, and Fundraisers. <\/strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.duelingpianoshows.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/connecticut-dueling-pianos-300x199-1.jpg\" alt=\"connecticut-dueling-pianos\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" class=\"picframe left size-medium wp-image-993\">While traditional Dueling Pianos performances such as Howl at the Moon, Rumrunners, Ernie Biggs, and Crocodile Rocks differ only slightly from performances for privately held events in Connecticut, the general format of &#8220;Sing-Along&#8221; (also synonymous with the term &#8220;Dueling Pianos&#8221;), request-driven song selections, great piano playing and comedy are prevalent in both <em>Connecticut dueling pianos private settings<\/em> and traditional <em>Connecticut dueling pianos nightclub<\/em> shows. However, not all dueling piano entertainers who perform regularly in nightclub settings have the skills necessary for performing the Dueling Pianos concept at a private function. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.duelingpianoshows.com\">Dueling Pianos International<\/a> has spent years developing a roster of artists of corporate and family friendly Dueling Piano professionals who have the following characteristics:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Proper training from second and third generation Dueling Piano veterans<\/li>\n<li>The ability to introduce the dueling pianos concept to a brand new audience &#8221; <strong>a requirement<\/strong> for any successful dueling pianos private engagement where the majority of the audience has little or no knowledge of the dueling pianos concept<\/li>\n<li>A professional appearance and attitude both on and offstage<\/li>\n<li>The ability to &#8220;read&#8221; a crowd and implement a balanced entertainment environment of dancing, sing-along, clever <strong>Connecticut dueling pianos comedy<\/strong> and audience interaction presented in a professional family friendly manner<\/li>\n<p> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.duelingpianoshows.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/connecticut2-dueling-pianos-300x199-1.jpg\" alt=\"connecticut2-dueling-pianos\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" class=\"picframe right size-medium wp-image-994\"> Dueling Pianos International&#8217;s client list includes: <em>Nestle, Dominoes, McDonald&#8217;s Corp, The United States Army, The United States Navy, Aegon Insurance Group, Boys and Girls Club of America<\/em> and many, many happy <em>brides and grooms<\/em> all across the country.Call 1-800-700-7464 (SING) for a personal consultation or you may <a href=\"https:\/\/duelingpianoshows.com\/contact-us\/\" title=\"Contact Us | Dueling Pianos International\" target=\"_blank\">Contact Us<\/a> online and complete our <a href=\"https:\/\/duelingpianoshows.com\/free-online-quote\/\" title=\"Free Online Quote | Dueling Pianos International\" target=\"_blank\">Free Online Quote<\/a> form!Here are just a few places that have hosted Dueling Pianos events: DarienWestportNew MilfordRidgefield, CT Dueling Pianos BethelSheltonNewtownWest Hartford (Dueling Pianos) StoningtonNew Haven {College Dueling Pianos}DanburyPortlandTrumbullWethersfieldWest SimsburyWeatogue <em>Dueling Pianos performances CT<\/em>NewingtonEssex VillageMilford DUELING PIANOS WEDDINGSOrangeEast HamptonClintonMadison CenterGlastonbury CenterMysticGuilford CenterStamford <em>Dueling Pianos Private Events<\/em>Woodbury CenterLitchfieldNoankOld Mystic <strong>Dueling Pianos Wedding Receptions<\/strong>\t\t<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"default-video-box\">\n<div class=\"multimedia_display\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dueling Pianos Connecticut I just wanted to say thank you for all your help in preparing our Dueling Pianos Wedding.
