Experienced musician generally plays with sheet music and can be the life of the party or play quietly in the background. I don't sing but work with many wonderful singers who I can bring upon client request.
Entertainment lawyer, intellectual property lawyer, pianist and music producer who plays piano professionally in New York nightclubs and specializes in standards, show-tunes, jazz and pop.
I generally need to read sheet music (and I have a broad assortment of music and fake books featuring almost every song imaginable), and therefore, I need good lighting. Prefer piano that has been recently tuned.
I play a wide range of music and styles, and can create a set list appropriate for the occasion. With thirty years experience in sing-along-piano bars I know how to assure that people sing along and have a good time.
