Overview

I'm a classically trained pianist, though I play all styles of music. I've played for hundreds of wedding and parties. I really enjoy playing background dinner music as well as orchestrating music for a beautiful wedding. I will play any music you like and I offer free consultations if you need suggestions for music.

What to Expect

I can provide melodious, easy listening music and well as upbeat fun music. I tend to add my own style and do a lot of improvising to enhance a piece of music. You can exect to hear uplifting music.

About

My name is Kris Simonson and I provide piano music for any event. I mostly play for weddings, but I've also played for theater productions, private parties, churches, and funerals. I majored in piano at UMD. I also have a degree in Elementary Education from (link hidden)holastica and a degree in vocal and classroom music from Hamline Universtiy. Besides playing piano for many events, I also teach elementary music for a public school and I teach piano at Schmitt Music. I also have several piano Cd's of my original music.
If hired, I do everything I can to make your event just what you want. I play any styles of music and if you have particular songs you want I will do that also. I love music and the special touch it can bring to any event.
