I am a pianist and keyboardist who has been playing for a bit over a decade now, and gigging for more than half that time. I am currently a student at the Lamont School of Music in my 3rd year. I take great pride in being able to learn and play in virtually any style, and I am extremely proficient at improvisation in classical, rock, pop, and jazz styles. I have performed in spaces from private parties to concert halls, and with ensembles such as chamber groups, rock bands, jazz bands, orchestras, and more. I also love to play as a collaborative pianist. I bring my best to every gig!
Karalina played piano beautifully for our church service. Her music blends gracefully with other instruments and musicians, and she adapted to our musical style with skill. She was on-time, well-prepared, and a joy to work with.
Karalina is the epitome of a professional musician! My church hired her to play throughout the month of December. She did a great job working with our other musicians and was flexible with our playing style. She was on time and ready for all rehearsals and worship services. I strongly recommend her services to anyone seeking a professional, polite, and prodigious keys/piano player.
Response from Karalina Marae:
Thank you so much KT! I had so much fun playing for your church. :)

I am most proficient in classical and jazz styles. I tailor my repertoire based on what I am hired for, and I'm capable of bringing in other players. I am extremely capable in band/ensemble settings. I can and will accompany traditionally, depending on the level. Note: If you request difficult piano repertoire that I do not know, I will need time to learn the piece, so please expect what you would of a typical professional pianist for learning time.
Holidays:
Over the holidays I learn a large amount of holiday music. I will play holiday music requests at parties! If you want anything specific, please ask while booking me. Happy holidays! :)
I prefer if where I am playing already has a piano, but I can set up a keyboard. If I bring a keyboard, I need a nearby outlet or extension cord and somewhere reasonable to put a speaker if it's necessary.
