Hello,
My name is Anastasia. I am a concert pianist and a singer. You are in the right place if you are looking for beautiful music.
I am a classical musician and play Jazz/Pop/R&B/Gospel music for your special request.
I will work with you to tailor the music to your event vision. My music creates an elegant and charming atmosphere for your wedding, engagement, cocktail hour, or private concert.
Also, if you are looking for a string quartet, string trio, piano trio, cello/violin, cello/piano, or piano/violin duo, I can quickly provide it.
Anastasia is an amazing pianist and was literally able to drop in and play piano accompaniment to a couple of non-trivial pieces when the originally planned pianist was not able to make it due to flight delay. She has an great sense of musical flow and expressiveness and was an integral part of our program.. I found her to also be flexible and easy to work with, as she was able to accommodate an additional rehearsal for a musician at the last minute.
If you are looking to make your event simply elegant, than Anastasia is that touch. I had Anastasia play during my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. She is so easy to collaborate with and went and above and beyond my expectations. My wedding guests still talk about the pianist. I highly recommend Anastasia for your event!
Anastasia did a fantastic job filling in for our event. She made it extremely easy. I would highly recommend her. Also, most importantly, the music was absolutely perfect. She's a very talented musician and can perform seemingly all the genres.
