Just what we were looking for!

As a senior retirement community activities director, I had Carlos play piano at our Mother's Day Tea social. I specifically wanted a performer who only played the piano w/ no vocals & as background music only. Carlos aced it! He plays beautifully and at just the right sound level during the tea so that all of the ladies could still socialize, without having to scream over the sound. The variety of songs was great, too. He is negotiable on booking fees and offers his services at an outstanding price. We will have him back for sure!
