Wedding Ceremonies, Receptions, Private Parties, Cocktail Hours.
35 years of experience playing piano for sacred occasions, wedding ceremonies and receptions, as well as cocktail piano for numerous occasions including private parties, receptions and fundraising benefits. In addition I have many years of experience as a musical theater accompanist having played both solo and as part of an orchestra. I can play an acoustic or digital instrument provided by the venue. Jazz standards, classical, showtunes, Christmas, sacred and pop music expertise. Let me entertain you.
Steven went above and beyond to make sure that our wedding day was special. He was professional and his playing was fantastic. Highly recommended!
Response from Steven Summers:
Thank you for the review, Gus.
Steven did a phenomenal job at our wedding. He played music for the ceremony and cocktail hour and we couldn't believe what a beautiful job he did. My husband is a musician so he is very picky about which musicians we hired for the wedding and he said that Steven's piano playing couldn't have been any better!
He was also very easy to communicate with and would answer messages promptly always!
What a joy it was to work with Steve on The Richmond Community Theater - Dinner Theater production of "Miracle on 34th street". Steve kept the audience entertained while the set was changing and added a musical score to our dramatic scenes. I hope to have him back every year. - Kris Miele Director
Steven made our wedding day so special. The music he provided was beautiful and he is incredibly professional, flexible and talented. It was a relief having such an experienced musician take care of the music for our wedding.
Price Range: $100-$500
Gig Length: 60 - 180 minutes
I play jazz standards, pop tunes, Broadway, classical and Sacred piano. My style is dependent on the occasion, but is generally a quieter, calming piano style.
From the earliest moment I can remember, I was enamored with the piano. Even before I learned to play, I pretended that I knew how to play and would gravitate to any piano available to me. Lessons began at about 12 years of age and continued for many years. Experience includes 40 years as a church musician and has included a few hundred wedding ceremonies and receptions. I've also played numerous holiday parties and charity benefits. Additionaly, I've accompanied musical theater performances of "The Sound of Music", "Chicago", "West Side Story", and "I Do! I Do!".
The venue or the client will need to provide an 88 key, weighted action, working keyboard with sound (Yamaha or Roland brand preferable) or an acoustic grand piano, in tune. (All keys and sustain pedal in working order)
