I'm an experienced performer playing positive, relaxed, swinging music from the jazz tradition that you and your guests will enjoy. I've entertained audiences at private events, restaurants, clubs and concert venues around the Washington, DC area and other parts of the country. I'm also an award-winning songwriter and happy to include my original songs in any performance.

July 31, 2024I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a truly remarkable jazz performance. The artist delivered a captivating mix of positive, relaxed, and swinging music that perfectly set the mood for our event. With extensive experience entertaining at various venues and events, their performance was both professional and engaging.
Hired as: Jazz Pianist
Price range: $250 and up

Gig length: 30 - 240 minutes
I can provide all the equipment needed for a solo piano + vocal performance: piano, amplification, microphone and small PA. I always prepare a set list ahead of time but am flexible to accommodate the needs of the customers and the event. I can dress as casually or formally as the event requires.
Oren Levine grew up with a love of music, especially jazz, inherited from his father. He started piano lessons as an eight-year-old in Washington, DC, and continued to play and study music while focusing on earning two engineering degrees and building a career in engineering, software, and technology management.
Oren currently writes songs and plays jazz piano at venues in the DC area and on St. Croix in the US Virgin Islands. His performances deliver positive, relaxed, swinging music rooted in the jazz tradition and almost always include some of his original songs.
Oren released an album of eleven original songs, “Making Up For Lost Time,” in 2018. His song “Let’s Wander” from the album won him the 2023 ASCAP Foundation Alan and Marilyn Bergman Lyric Award. The title track won a Finalist award in the 2019 Mid-Atlantic Song Contest.
