Fantastic Pianist

I put out a search for a pianist very last minute for funeral. Sandra responded almost instantly and asked to see the music to see if she could learn it in the timeframe. She charged what I'm sure is below her standard rate because it was a child's funeral. She did an amazing job as an accompanist for the violin and created a powerfully tender moment on a heavy day.

Best Experience

Sandy was great. She showed up early. Got all set up. Read the room and the vibes we were going for and she took it away. Played non stop for 2 hours at my backyard tea party and people were raving about her. Will definitely hire her again. Highly recommend her!

What to expect

I am here to make bringing music to your events as easy and stress-free as possible. Contact me with your event details and we can discuss what music will bring the right atmosphere you imagine. I'm happy to bring a portable keyboard, or play a provided piano. Please let me know if the piano needs tunings ahead of time, and I can provide that service as well. I am experienced with weddings and other events, so you can rest assured any cues for music to start and stop will be easily understood. Looking forward to customizing a setlist for your special event!
