The Heart and Soul of Goldie’s Lounge: Our Resident Hotel Pianist

Step into the enchanting atmosphere of Goldie’s Lounge on selected evenings during the weekend and you’ll be greeted not just by the luxurious charm of the décor but by the captivating melodies of our resident pianist, George. With his talent for evoking emotion through music, George has become a cherished part of our guest experience at Carden Park.

Introducing George the Pianist

George’s love for music is a deeply personal story. Born and raised in Romania, he discovered his passion at an early age being inspired by his father; a skilled acoustic guitarist. At just seven years old, George began playing the violin but his school’s curriculum required a second instrument. That’s when he encountered the piano — a moment that would shape his life forever. Fascinated by its complexity and expressive potential, George poured his heart into mastering its keys as he discovering a medium through which he could truly express himself.

His formal training at the prestigious Musical Academy in Bucharest honed his classical skills but George’s love for sharing music knew no borders. In 2010 he moved to the UK, bringing his passion with him. Over the years he has performed in distinguished venues across England and Wales, earning a reputation as a versatile and extremely talented pianist.

Where to listen to our resident Hotel Pianist

Goldie’s Lounge provides the perfect setting for George’s artistry. Guests often enjoy his soothing tunes over pre- or post-dinner cocktails after dining at our 3 AA Rosette Cheshire restaurant; The Vines. George’s ability to read the room and adapt his set-list to his audiences preferences ensures that every note complements the atmosphere. Whether you’re celebrating with loved ones or unwinding after a long day, the music will elevate the moment.

Although classically trained, George’s talent is not confined by genre. His extensive repertoire spans over a century of music, from timeless classics like “If You Were the Only Girl” from the 1910s to modern hits such as Emeli Sandé’s “Read All About It.” Whether you’re a fan of vintage romance or contemporary pop, George’s performance will be sure to personally resonate with you.

He is also appreciated for his personal touch – guests can send in song requests in advance, making him particularly popular for anniversary celebrations and special occasions. His ability to accommodate to the individual preferences of his audience creates memorable experience for all who listen. What better way to show your loved one you care by organising their ‘special’ song to be played during your visit.

Guests of Carden Park Hotel seem to particularly enjoy George’s performances of the following songs;

  • “Stuck on You” by Lionel Richie
  • “Photograph” by Ed Sheeran
  • “Canon in D” by Johann Pachelbel
