About Us:
Before streaming, CDs, tapes, or albums, a common way to enjoy music was to make it in the home (i.e. the parlor), resulting in a festive live performance. This authenticity was the inspiration for Parlor Lights, to personalize, enrich, and make more memorable the experience for you and your guests.
Parlor Lights consists of a variety of musicians and instrument combinations to deliver a trio for your event, including violin, cello, trumpet, clarinet, and piano.
About the Musicians:
Mary Navis - Violinist
Starting from the Suzuki method at age three to serving four years as concertmaster for the UW-Oshkosh Orchestra and twenty years as Principal 2nd Violinist for Sheboygan Symphony Orchestra, Mary has been playing violin most of her life. Studying under Joan Rooney and Klara Bahcall before opening her own private teaching studio, she has performed with Cooley String Quartet, Sheboygan Symphony String Quartet, & Jubilate.
She truly enjoys playing for weddings and has over thirty-five years of ceremony experience (visit Mary’s website Classical Touch). Fun fact - she has played at Christmas Midnight Mass in her church every year since she was eight except two years when she had newborn children.
Andrew Piehl - Cellist
Andrew received his bachelor’s degree in music at UW-Eau Claire. Since then, he has performed in different capacities from playing with multiple orchestras including Hub City, Manitowoc, and Green Bay Civic Symphonies, to solo gigging and even playing with a bluegrass band. He currently teaches elementary music and string lessons at the Manitowoc High School as well as at Holy Family Conservatory.
Tom Palof - Pianist - Founder of Parlor Lights
Greatly influenced from a wide array of artists including Bach, Aaron Copland, George Winston, Eric Whitacre, & Coldplay, Tom has a driving passion for composition and arrangements for choirs, ensembles, & indie projects.
Tom was a founding member of the group Spanglemaker, a Midwest original band in the mid-90s/early 2000s once deemed Milwaukee’s best unsigned band, cutting five CDs and opening for acts like Fiona Apple and Pat Benatar. He has also led clinics with the Lakeland University choir to perform his original choral works.
He is inspired to create piano, choral, indie, and ensemble compositions that takes one out of their routine and allows for the subtle joy and serenity in life to surface. Visit (link hidden) for more works by Tom.
