December 13, 2019We booked Risa to play piano at a company holiday party in a private home, and we are so glad we did. She played a beautiful medley of secular holiday songs mixed with classic tunes, creating the perfect ambiance for this festive occasion. She was prompt and professional throughout the booking process, and we will definitely be booking her for future events!
