I sight read very well and am a very versatile musician (accompanist, background pianist, singing pianist, sing-along entertainment & special holiday programs). I can prepare up to 5 songs that are not included in the "Music List" provided (please ask for this list). But, need enough time to prepare new songs. I am flexible with what the host is looking for and believe in following their itinerary very closely.
ACCOMPANIMENT: I sight read very well and can accompany your child's music competition, a soloist who needs a pianist or a music program that needs a pianist for their event.
PARTIES: I play light piano as background music while your guest mingle. And, can include a time of sing-alongs (check the "Music List" for the songs and genres to choose from ) for the guest to join in and have the time of their lives singing with me!
WEDDINGS/FUNERALS: I typically play background piano (hymnal, classical or classic music depending on your taste) before and after the service. Then, I will sing a solo (your decision on how many songs and what songs). I will also lead the guest in group hymnal singing if requested.
*The mood is more reserved and less flair. Ask for the "Music List" to see what songs I typically play. I have strong sight reading skills and can play just about any song if given enough time to prepare.
CONCERTS: I typically sing and play 25 fast and slow songs within one hour from many different familiar genres (hymnal, broadway, classics, country, italian, opera) to add variety and interest. There's a lot more engagement with the audience during the performance and the mood is more energetic.
PROGRAMS/HOLIDAYS: I can make your holiday or program special with live music.
