Pianist John Colianni provides elegant Jazz, Standards, and Popular Songs for your event, ready to perform for your event. I perform as a solo pianist, and also with a bassist and drummer. More players can be added as desired. Something else worth mentioning - I've also played extended gigs for Mel Torme, Les Paul, Steve Miller, Woody Allen, and Lionel Hampton...hope to play for you, too!
