Overview
I'm a classically trained pianist who can play a variety of genres and can tailor my playing to the needs of your particular event. I can play classical pieces, jazz tunes, and singer-songwriter stuff. I'm also great at learning things quickly and sightreading in case you or any guests have requests at your event. Looking forward to hearing from you!

If you are looking for very professional, super quick response exceptionally organized with collection of sheet music and insanely talented for any genre classical, jazz or pop then Rufus is the only pianist you need to book. Don’t let his youth deceive you, trained at USC THE best place for pianists his demeanor is as if he has been working in the industry for years. I booked him to accompany a professional soprano for a rehearsal and he was so wonderful to work with. Book him now as he is understandably in HIGH demand! Thank you so much Rufus!

Found Rufus online and managed to have him hired for our wedding this past weekend. He learned to play a very difficult piece for our ceremony walk almost what seems overnight. He’s talented, professional, an excellent communicator, and very willing to help meet the needs that are required/adjusted. I would Absolutely recommend him to anyone who wants a perfect event to be had. There is is no one better.

Rufus showed up on time, played brilliantly, was very pleasant to deal with and was a huge hit with my family. We booked him to play for my mom who loves classical piano. He knew many of her favorite pieces by heart without needing the sheet music. I would hire him again for sure. Highly recommend!

We recently engaged Rufus to play at our holiday party. Not only is he extremely talented but he is a lovely person, great communicator, caring and thoughtful. He took the time in advance to go over our song lists and make sure he was prepared then took requests on the night. He was very much part of the spirit of the evening and made for a joyful celebration. I would not hesitate to recommend or to hire again. Thank you, Rufus! Happy Holidays!

I got referred to Rufus by a friend familiar with musicians in the area. He played at a fundraising event for me and was amazing. Versatile in his play sets from popular to jazz and classical, hands down I would recommend him to anyone. If fact, I am trying to get him hooked up w a local music venue.
