Delightful to see and hear, Whitney Phoenix is master of piano artistry. Raised as a gifted child in the picturesque Vermont countryside, Whitney studied piano from age 8. Captivated by the beauty and complexity of classical music, he spent many years practicing eight hours a day. Whitney took his formal study at Oberlin Conservatory in Ohio, after which he served in the Marine Corps for four years. As piano instructor at the Armed Forces School of Music, Whitney strayed from his classical roots, exploring the world of jazz, big band, rock, R&B, and pop music. From there, he has performed with a variety of bands, from the most intimate of settings to the concert stage.

Since 1993, Whitney has performed as a solo artist in Las Vegas. He has appeared extensively at Caesar’s Palace, Imperial Palace, MGM Grand, and is currently featured at Bellagio. He also works with his wife, Marianne, a vocalist of extraordinary ability. He has numerous recordings to his credit, both solo and with Marianne.

Whitney brings the diversity of his life experience to his music. His playing is vital and expressive, and his zest for life and love of art is evident in every note. Whitney’s gift has been an unexpected highlight for many visitors to Las Vegas.
