It was the most engaged I’ve been on Zoom – ever!
Our attendees loved it! The hype is true – Dan’s parties are magical!
For several hours, I was transported to a time without work, stress or responsibilities!
Welcome to Virtual Piano Party
Imagine this: You and your colleagues, family, or friends are in a Zoom… but this is completely different. It’s a virtual piano bar/dance party all on Zoom, with a twist you won’t find anywhere else. This is a one-of-a-kind experience where you will leave in an amazing mood.
Imagine being immersed in an engaging musical and bonding experience with others. This includes:
- An interactive game of Name that Tune
- Requesting your favorite songs to a pianist who can play thousands of songs immediately upon request.
- Sing-alongs (similar to a piano/karaoke bar but on Zoom – yes, it’s possible).
- High-energy songs (with words on the screen) that are bound to get you waving your hands in the air, clapping to the beat, and dancing in your home office or family room. Seriously … this really happens and you will feel transported.
It’s literally a virtual piano bar, with group karaoke/dancing mixed in, as well as some games. These events are perfect for all types of groups (company conferences, law firm summer associate programs, happy hours for work colleagues, online reunions with family or friends, birthday parties for all ages, fundraisers … any online gathering where you want to have fun). They can also be fully customized based on the nature of your event. Most importantly, Virtual Piano Party is a lighthearted, interactive, high-energy, comical, self-deprecating, sometimes-emotional, and unique bonding experience based in the shared enjoyment of music and fun.

Dan, Your virtual piano party was simply AWESOME. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed it, and had that same reaction from everyone else I talked with after the event. I said to one of my friends that it was the most engaged I’ve been on Zoom ever! Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us all.

My firm’s event’s team booked Dan for an event for a social event for our women partners in NYC. I must admit having attended many virtual events where the production value was not good or the connection “glitchy,” I was skeptical that anyone could pull off a virtual piano party. But after reading the rave reviews, we were sold. And Dan far exceeded expectations! Not only was the production quality stellar but he was able to get a bunch of generally high strung, serious lawyers to let loose and have fun. By the end of the event, we were all singing loudly and up on our feet dancing. Dan is so talented, not only as a musician but also as a performer who engages with his audience and helps make people smile. This escape was much-needed during the pandemic. I would recommend Dan to anyone planning an event virtually or otherwise!

What a fantastic celebration of NALP’s 50th Anniversary! It is unimaginable that at this stage of virtual entertainment during the pandemic that Dan could pull off such a fun and engaging Virtual Piano Party. Our attendees loved it and had a blast singing and dancing!
Dan is a great entertainer and crowd manager as well as being gifted musically. As life gets back to “normal” with in person events, Dan’s Virtual Piano Parties will go on, as they allow people from all different locations to have a fantastic time together virtually.
The hype is true – Dan’s parties are magical!

You truly made celebrating a milestone birthday during a pandemic more fun than I could have ever imagined! I will always cherish the memories of laughing, dancing and singing with my friends that you helped create last night. You transformed Zoom into a virtual nightclub, and for several hours, I was transported to a time without work, stress or responsibilities! I’m in awe of your incredible musical talent and your charismatic way of making even the most reticent of us let loose and just have fun. Thank you for all you do to bring joy to others during these tough times. Anyone who hasn’t been to one of Dan’s virtual piano parties is missing out! Just do it!

How This Started
Virtual Piano Party was started by accident.
Since the age of 4, Dan Binstock has been playing songs on the piano by ear. He has the rare ability (approximately 1 in 10,000) to play thousands of songs on instant request, even if he has never played the song before. While Dan’s formal education took him in into the field of law, his passion is playing piano and using this to bring people together.
In April 2020, during the depths of quarantine, Dan Binstock invited some of his Facebook friends to a Facebook Live concert where he would take piano requests.
From Led Zepplin to the “Theme from Cheers” to Footloose to Bruno Mars to Billy Joel to Les Miserables, and everything in between.
These events quickly grew as people shared what they were watching.
Spreading the Music
More people started joining, requesting songs, and connecting with friends through their mutual love of certain songs and bands/artists. The event had over 1,000 comments, and Dan was requested to keep having these interactive performances, including private events.
In December 2020, when Dan’s company was trying to figure out something interesting for their own holiday party, he had the idea to have a name-that-tune event. That sparked the idea and Virtual Piano Party was born.
And in late-2021, Dan’s piano videos (as @pianodaddan) went viral on social media where he has nearly 1 million followers and his videos have been viewed over 75 million times. This is your chance to have this one-of-a-kind interactive experience that cannot be found anywhere else.

Virtual Piano Party Details
The length of a Virtual Piano Party is usually between 60 and 75 minutes (or longer). Because this is a labor of love (during the day, Dan co-owns a long-time attorney search firm in Washington, DC), a portion of funds from each event will be donated to your charity of choice. Dan is also very accessible and will arrange to have a phone call — or multiple calls, if needed — to go over details about the attendees, special requests, and provide tips on how to ensure everyone leaves thinking, “Wow, that was really fun – I’m so glad we did this.”
Non-Profit Performances
If you work for a non-profit and this is of interest, but you don’t have allotted funds, Dan is happy to work with you on cost, pending his availability.
