Thank you, Karen! It's so nice to have received your positive feedback from my performance last night! It's always a pleasure to play background music during such a wonderful occasion as a wedding shower! There was an upbeat and positive energy in the room and everyone looked like they were having a great time. Thank you for choosing me as your pianist, I know you have many to chose from and I feel grateful for it!

My husband and I cannot recommend Glenn Kramer enough! Glenn worked closely with us on our wedding song requests, even learning some news ones we were keen on hearing. He responded almost instantaneously to all of our many questions and messages, and he was extremely professional and friendly to us and our wedding guests. Not only did he exceed all of our expectations, he even snuck in some AMAZING behind the scenes wedding photos in his downtime with his phone, that he later passed along to us. BOOK HIM!!!

Glenn - thank you again for everything, you are so talented and we loved having you play on our special day.

Carrie,

It warms my heart to know that the music I performed for your wedding was exactly what you were looking for! You and your husband selected such wonderful pieces for me to play during Cocktail Hour, and I enjoyed playing piano for your celebration immensely. I'm glad you loved the photos I sent you as well :) It's always a pleasure working for great clients like yourself!! Keep me in mind again for any events in the future.

Best regards and Happy Holidays!
Glenn

This was for my mother-in-laws birthday party and we really wanted to make it very special. She loves live piano music and after many hours of searching I stumbled upon Glenn's listing her in GigSalad. I am so glad I did. He was very quick in communicating back to me and sent his enormous playlist to me right away. He can play just any genre you may be wanting and do it beautifully. He is the consummate professional and I can't imagine anyone regretting hiring him. I will surely do so again.

Have a beautiful holiday season and I wish you the best in the coming year!

Glenn's music supercharged our 70th birthday party celebration and had everyone singing along with classic rock. When booking, we requested songs from the 70s and 80s be the mainstay of the evening, and Glenn arrived fully prepared to deliver. He provided background music at the outset as guests arrived, mingled, and ate, then picked up the pace as several attendees gathered around the piano to sing along with their favorites! In the end, it was standing room only around the piano and everyone had a great time! Truly, a birthday to remember!!

Hi Eryl, it was truly a pleasure to entertain at your piano for your wife's birthday party, what a special occasion it was! I was really delighted to play her favorite songs and take requests throughout the night. Your video slideshow presentation was wonderfully crafted, and I was happy to play her favorite songs while the video was playing to add a personalized touch!

Thanks again for this opportunity you gave me to share music with your close family members. Feel free to contact me again in the future if you'd like more music, or a Karaoke-style format where your family can sing.

Sincerely,
Glenn

About

🎹 Meet Glenn Kramer — Pianist, Entertainer, and Music Maestro! 🎶

Since 2000, Glenn Kramer has been bringing unforgettable music to events across San Diego, Orange County, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Palm Springs. From pop and jazz to showtunes, from music of today to the timeless classics of the Great American Songbook, Glenn loves taking requests and creating the perfect soundtrack for any occasion.

Whether performing for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, or corporate events, Glenn also shares his musical magic in assisted living and memory care facilities, where his interactive games—like Name That Tune and his very own music-themed Bingo—delight audiences of all ages. NEW to 2025: Keyboard Karaoke! Glenn can bring his 50" portable TV and have the scrolling lyrics to any song displayed for your singing guests, or anyone who simply wishes to follow along.

Glenn is celebrated for his lively, one-hour programs, each built around a theme, artist, or genre. With over 400 unique programs in his repertoire, he brings music history and trivia to life while keeping everyone engaged. Lyric books allow attendees to sing along, and he even brings rhythm instruments like shakers and tambourines to make each performance interactive and fun.

Born in Los Angeles, California, Glenn began his professional career at just 15 years old, performing dinner music at the North Ranch Country Club in Calabasas. His arrangements, transcriptions, and original compositions have earned acclaim, and his music is available on iTunes and other streaming platforms.

Glenn is also the founder of AmateurPianists, the world’s largest piano-themed Meetup group and nonprofit organization in San Diego. The group provides performance and learning opportunities for amateur pianists of all skill levels, from recitals and masterclasses to an international piano competition for top-level amateur players.

Outside of music, Glenn enjoys graphic design, travel, and cultural events, and he strives to live life with gratitude, love, music, and creativity—values he hopes to pass on to his 7-year-old son.

With Glenn Kramer at the piano, your event isn’t just music—it’s an experience filled with joy, energy, and a little bit of sparkle! ✨
