About
I am a dapper and cheerful musician, offering my services for Christmas, weddings, parties, corporate events, and more. My attire ranges from blazers and bow ties to formal tuxedos. My professionalism is indisputable, as I always arrive early and maintain a clean-shaven appearance. I possess excellent communication skills and readily take on the role of MC at events. In addition, I have a reputation for connecting with guests and am willing to stay late without additional charge.My 44 online reviews are highly laudatory, with only one dissenter among them. While I'm proud of my reputation as the top pianist for Christmas, weddings, and corporate events in Music City, I must confess that I cannot read sheet music and therefore cannot play classical pieces. However, I have an impressive repertoire of 480 songs from the Great American Songbook, including works by Jerome Kern, Cole Porter, Rodgers and Hammerstein, George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Stephen Sondheim, and others.
Whether you're looking for a mellow ambiance with ballads like "Misty" or "Georgia on My Mind," or more upbeat melodies like "The Lady is a Tramp" or "Satin Doll," I am more than capable of providing an appropriate soundtrack for any occasion. I even have a wedding repertoire consisting solely of love songs with customizable tunes and order of play.
Clients frequently comment on my professionalism, ease of communication, and passion for music. They regard me as a reliable performer who's willing to provide equipment if necessary. My versions of "The Wedding March" and "Amazing Grace" have both received numerous compliments, while I'm also capable of bringing along an upright bass player for ballroom dancing.
Online reviews from satisfied customers abound, with comments such as "Best Pianist Ever!" and "Awesome Entertainer." Past events of mine include everything from corporate functions and birthdays to university functions and wedding receptions. I offer a 25% discount for nonprofits and am committed to spreading joy through my music.
Once again, thank you for considering my services. For more information, please visit my Youtube channel or search for "Best Jazz Pianist in Nashville." I look forward to hearing from you.
