DeutschMusik, based out of Waubeka, WI, offers live music and full-day wedding entertainment.
Milwaukee / Madison Area Pianist, Vocalist, DJ & MC – Anthony Deutsch
With 25 years of passion for music—starting with my lifelong love of the piano and soon after, singing—you may have seen me performing around Milwaukee and Madison, or during the holiday season when my trio sells out venues recreating Vince Guaraldi's iconic A Charlie Brown Christmas jazz album. I bring that same infectious joy, energy, and charisma to every wedding I'm honored to be part of.
My superpower? Seamless full-day wedding music and entertainment—from prelude to the last dance—all under one experienced, reliable package. As a pianist and vocalist, I've also DJ'd and MC'd countless weddings for over a decade, so your day flows effortlessly.
Your Dream Wedding Day, "From Prelude to Party"
I handle the entire musical experience so you can focus on celebrating:
* Ceremony — Beautiful live piano/vocals tailored to your vision (I've even officiated a few times!)
* Cocktail Hour — Solo piano/vocals or my jazz trio (piano, bass, drums) for sophisticated ambiance
* Grand Entrance — Energetic MC'ing to kick off the reception
* Dinner — Elegant curated playlist or live trio performances
* Speeches, First Dances & Special Moments — Warm introductions and smooth transitions
* Dance Party — DJ until the venue says stop—taking requests (or curating without) to keep the energy high
I love getting to know you both and truly understanding your vision. Live music is my life's calling—deeply personal and magical at weddings. The musicians I bring in are top-tier pros devoted to jazz and improvisation; I'm selective because your day deserves the best.
On the DJ Side of things:
I want a clear sense of your dance-floor vibe: favorite bangers, nostalgic classics, family heirloom songs, slow dances, group/line dances, and especially any "do not play" list. This is your wedding—my duty is to bring your vision to life. Many couples arrive unsure about traditions or dances; that's okay! I encourage you to own every detail and make the day uniquely yours.
Peace & Blessings,
Anthony

oulful mood that had our guests talking for weeks—but working with Anthony was a breeze. He handled everything seamlessly and coordinated directly with our venue, the Milwaukee Athletic Club, so we were completely hands-off. If you need a top-tier jazz performer in Milwaukee, Anthony is the one to book!

Anthony was a superstar at our wedding. He MC’d, DJ’d, AND played keyboard at cocktail hour.
He’s communicative, easy to work and plan with, kind, and reliable. He’s an expert MC,...
a wonderfully talented musician, and a great DJ that strikes a balance between sticking to the vibe while also fielding requests.
