I'm a professional pianist and I will perform elegant, soulful renditions of jazz standards and all time favorites with a silky touch and refined style. The music will be tailored to your event — from smooth background ambiance to a lively set. I'm available as a solo pianist or a duo with a bass/sax, or a full jazz trio for added warmth and sophistication. A quality digital piano can be provided if an acoustic piano is not available. I'm looking forward to bringing a jazz touch to your events in order to make your event memorable!
I tailor every set list to match the mood, theme, and atmosphere of your event. My repertoire spans elegant jazz standards, smooth swing tunes, Bossa Nova favorites, and select pop classics arranged in a refined cocktail piano style. Whether you’re looking for a romantic backdrop or an upbeat, feel-good vibe, the music will enhance the experience and leave your guests delighted.
I am a professional pianist known for an elegant touch, refined sound, and expressive interpretations of both timeless jazz standards and beloved favorites. With over 25 years of experience performing in jazz clubs, festivals, private receptions, and corporate events, I bring warmth and sophistication to every setting — whether intimate or grand.
Versatility is at the heart of my approach. From smooth cocktail piano and lively swing to ragtime or Brazilian classics, I adapt seamlessly to the atmosphere, offering solo performances or small ensemble formats to match your event’s style and energy.
My playing is deeply inspired by the great pianists who shaped the history of jazz — from the lyrical beauty of Bill Evans and the soulful drive of Oscar Peterson to the understated elegance of Ahmad Jamal. These influences inform a musical atmosphere that is both classic and personal: refined, expressive, and deeply engaging for your guests.
