With almost 40 years in performance as a concert pianist, accompanist, as well as collaborating with other instrumentalists, I would love to make your special event come to life with elegant live piano music. PIANIST, ACCOMPANIST and DIGITAL RECORDINGS - I play for weddings, and special events, as a solo pianist and also work with instrumentalists and vocalists. As an accompanist, I have had the opportunity and experience to work with all types of instrumentalists, as well as vocalists and choirs, ranging from middle school, high school, College and professionals, with some placing 1st place in WA state competitions. I am also available to record any piano accompaniment parts for your instrumental or vocal pieces. High quality digital recording of the piano part would be ideal for your rehearsal needs, as you learn your piece: slower rehearsal tempo & performance tempo. Please message me for rates.
