Kevin Preval

Live Piano & Saxophone for Weddings, Parties & Events

Hello!

Live music that gives the room exactly what it needs.

Kevin Preval is a formally trained pianist and saxophonist who brings warmth, soul, and more than 20 years of musical experience to weddings, corporate events, cocktail hours, dinners, and private celebrations.

His style is relaxed, versatile, and instinctive. He knows when the music should add energy—and when it should simply make everything happening around it feel a little better.

20+ Years Playing | Bachelor’s in Music Education | Experienced Ensemble Musician | Skilled Improviser

Kevin brings a serious musical background to the room:

  • 20+ years playing piano and saxophone

  • Bachelor’s degree in Music Education from Southern New Hampshire University

  • Experience performing with orchestras, jazz bands, and wind ensembles

  • Strong background in jazz and improvisation

  • Comfortable across jazz, pop, R&B, classical, soul, and more

  • Piano and saxophone—which means one musician can create two completely different sounds during the same event

But the résumé isn't really the point. What matters is what Kevin does with it.

He knows how to let live music elevate a room without taking it over. A piano can sit underneath conversation during dinner. Jazz can give a cocktail hour a little more life. And when it's time to bring the energy up, Kevin can put down the keys, pick up the saxophone, and completely change the feel of the event.

That's where his versatility really becomes fun.

Kevin has been making music for most of his life.

Over more than two decades, he's played piano, saxophone, clarinet, and voice and performed in everything from orchestras to jazz bands and wind ensembles.

But ask him what he loves most about performing and his answer isn't particularly complicated:

He likes seeing people smile.

Kevin describes himself as hardworking, humble, and patient.

We'd add another:

Heart.

“I always play with my heart and people can tell I do. You’re getting a musician that puts his all into it.”

His goal is for people to walk away remembering how the music made the event feel.

Ideally?

He wants the music to give you chills.

Kevin Lore

He’ll be embarrassed that we dug this footage up, but here’s a bit of Lore from Kevin’s past.

Yes, he can probably play that.

Got a request in mind? Kevin will play you a demo.

  • Working with Nathaniel was such a great experience from start to finish. He took the time to get to know both of us and really understand what we wanted our ceremony to feel like, which made it feel very personal rather than your average wedding ceremony.

    Brooke and Rick, Married in 2025

  • There were so many little touches that he recommended for the ceremony that we would not have even thought about, and they really helped make it wonderful. The script came together beautifully, and the ceremony itself was one of our favorite parts of the day.

    Brook and Rick, Continued

  • Nathaniel was incredibly thoughtful, easy to work with, and made the whole process feel comfortable and stress free. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to get married!

    Brook and Rick, Continued

  • You did an incredible job. I was told several times how you crushed it. I can't thank you enough.
