Myself playing with Jimmy Cobb and Nat Reeves!
Angelo is a Reno-based keyboardist, composer, educator, and arts administrator whose work explores the intersections of culture, identity, and sound. Born in Hong Kong into a musical family, Angelo's artistic journey has been shaped by a diverse palette of musical influences — from jazz, classical, and funk to salsa, Irish folk, and synth-pop. His playing reflects this rich variety, always grounded in authenticity, emotional nuance, and a commitment to connection.

November 1, 2024The event was my husband's 90th birthday. I had invited roughly 30 friends for a dinner party. Angelo arrived on time. I had told him the time my guests would arrive and he suggested that he come 1/2 hr before so that we would have time to meet and finalize my expectations for music. That worked out perfectly. After entertaining my noisy crowd at the end, he slipped out quietly. My guests loved him and I am sure we will request Angelo again and again. He has a versatile repertoire and can play anything you ask!

Expect a performance from a musician who is actively engaged in what he's doing, and is enjoying every moment of it.
I'm a firm believer in communication and I translate that into finding what's most effective for the client. Flexibility is also integral, and I will do my best to work with the circumstances in order to suit your needs. Expect professional service from beginning to end - from the planning, to the execution.
If you are providing a piano/keyboard for me to make use of, please give the condition/make/model of said piano/keyboard. An accurate description on the condition of the piano includes tuning, keys that may be broken, etc.
If you cannot provide a piano/keyboard (which is perfectly okay), please make sure that you have a working outlet that I can run an extension cord and power strip out of, in order to plug in and power my gear.
