I have been playing the piano for 16 years. I have a Bachelor's degree in music, and have received accompanying scholarships for accompanying a wide variety of instrumentalists, vocalists and ensembles. One of those instrumentalists was Grammy award winning hornist Marian Hess. I have provided background music for the Conference Center and Joseph Smith Memorial Building. I have also played for wedding receptions and wedding ceremonies. I have performed solo with the American West Symphony and the Nachtmusick Chamber Orchestra.
My repertoire is a combination of Disney medleys, Classical, Broadway, and oldies love songs. I will provide the best atmosphere you could want for your wedding!
