I can’t say enough about Sounds of Laura: Great Piano Music! Laura is such a sweet and talented lady. She has an incredible amount of style and grace that shines through both in her personality and in her music. Her piano playing is absolutely beautiful—every note felt full of emotion and sophistication. She was truly wonderful to work with, and she brought such a warm, elegant energy to the event. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to add something special and unforgettable to their occasion!

May 7, 2025An Evening to Remember
We recently booked Laura for a private dinner, and it was an unforgettable experience. She played a beautiful selection of 60s hits that set the perfect mood for the evening. Elegant, nostalgic, and so much fun. Our guests could not stop raving about the music, and the atmosphere she created truly elevated the entire event. Professional, talented, and easy to work with from start to finish. Highly recommend for anyone looking to add a special touch to their gathering.

December 19, 2024Exceptional Wedding Pianist – Highly Recommended!
We had the absolute pleasure of having Laura perform at our wedding, and it was truly magical. From the first note to the last, their music added so much warmth and elegance to our special day.
Laura worked closely with us beforehand to understand our preferences, incorporating some of our favorite love songs, into the collection she played as our guests entered the venue.
Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the beautiful music and how it perfectly complemented the atmosphere. It was clear that Laura is not only a talented musician but also someone who genuinely cares about making each event unique and memorable.
We’re so grateful for her contribution to our wedding day and couldn’t recommend Laura enough for any special occasion.

What to expect
The passion I have for my music joined with my melodious material captures an immediate, emphatic response from the listener, sustaining interest throughout the duration of a performance. My Oldies & Classic Rock bring back allot of memories for many people. All of the wonderful Italian, French, Russian & Indian music in my repertoire stirs emotions.
My ambient background music, whether it is Classical, lovely tunes from Broadway and Film, Light Jazz or Contemporary Sounds, brings about a relaxed, peaceful, refreshed feeling for the listener.
Music for the Wedding Ceremonies and Receptions that I play create lasting memories for the bride and groom.
The words of my past and present clients perhaps best expresses what you will hear when you listen to the Sounds of Laura: "Beautiful," "Awesome," "Amazing," "Unique, "Elegant," "Romantic," "Flawless," and simply "Gorgeous."
About

Her clients across the 68 towns & cities in Texas where she has performed have described her music as: BEAUTIFUL, AWESOME, WONDERFUL, FLAWLESS, GRAND, UNIQUE, ELEGANT, ROMANTIC, FUN, and simply GORGEOUS.
Laura can also offer a voice soloist with her accompaniment. Her husband, T.J. has a wonderful singing voice. Laura enjoys working with him for different events such as Children's Parties, Wedding Functions, etc.
Laura's versatile performance background started with the precision of a Kilgore Rangerette in 1962, (officer..one year later,) the fun of Six Flags Over Texas shows, followed by the discipline of the TCU Ballet Department. She has danced with both the Fort Worth Opera Association and San Antonio Opera. Other dance credits include appearances on the Southwestern Bell TV Show and performing artist for the Texas Historical Society.
After completing her BFA in Ballet-Theater and MFA in Speech-Drama from TCU, Laura has been a choreographer, professor, singer and pianist.
She began studying piano at the age of 9 in her hometown, Atlanta, Texas. She was classically trained. Her teacher, Mrs. W.O. Harden, insisted that she learn music from the Romantic, Classical, and Baroque Eras. Early knowledge of the impressionist, Debussy, and the 20th century greats such as Sibelius were familiar studies for this young student.
While attending TCU for advanced degrees, Laura continued to study classical music with Lilita McCorkle, prominent member of the music faculty.
Laura's musicianship reveals that she is equally at home with Minuets, Romantic Waltzes, Ragtime, Jazz, and Pop.
Laura combines technique with melody to create her own arrangements of many song styles...familiar and new alike. Technical ability, imagination and her special touch further enables Laura to embellish music spanning many genres.
Not just a pianist....a creative, unique artist describes SOUNDS OF LAURA. This talented piano stylist designs beautiful musical programs with her varied sounds available on her 88 key professional, Yamaha, electric piano. Music on "Strings," "Grand Piano," "Electric Piano," "Harpsichord," "Organ," & "Vibes," is customized to fit the style and genre of music played. Some pieces of music call for a combination of sounds. Such as Grand Piano in the foreground with Strings in the background.
In addition to her playing both Traditional & Non-Traditional Wedding Ceremonies and Receptions...both indoor & outdoor, Laura has a special category which includes Gothic Weddings. A broad repertoire of Classical & Contemporary music is available for this most dramatic theme.
Genres are very broad for this versatile pianist: In addition to the Classical & Contemporary repertoire, Laura is also accomplished with: Broadway/Film Hits, Folk, Country, Light Jazz, Classic Rock, New Age, Easy Listening, Religious, Gothic, Oldies, Alternative Rock, R&B, Pop & World Music (including Italian, French, Spanish, etc.) Popular song styles & standards from the 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 2000 and today's present Contemporary are all within the experience of this multi-talented pianist.

Testimonials
"Breath of Fresh Air!" I know how stressful planning a wedding can be! I just went through it. I had my musician lined up for my wedding ceremony and about a month before the big day they backed out! I searched online and found Laura. She is so organized and professional. She put my mind at ease as soon as my husband and I had our consultation with her. She takes care of you and makes you feel like her main priority. Did I mention what a fabulous pianist she is? Her song selection is so great and diverse, you will definitely find what you want! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pianist for their big day!
– Neely Rogers, Fort Worth, Texas
Laura was wonderful! I'm so glad she was there to play the music on our special day.

Laura played the piano at my wedding ceremony and it was so beautiful. I wanted to cry but i didn't want to mess up my make-up. I really loved how she played "Ave Maria." The best of all is that I have it on videotape to replay over and over. Posted on www.weddingwire.com

Sounds of Laura provided excellent live ceremony music for our wedding. Laura & I reviewed each song & the order of songs in advance. She is very flexible & willing to work with you on music. Since she is such a professional, I trusted her opinion & judgment & went with the list she proposed. But I did not want to enter to "here comes the bride" so she chose a more classical piece for my entrance. Her keyboard produces so many varieties of sounds, not only piano, but organ, pipe organ, & many other sounds. When we were developing the list of music, she would play me an example of each sound...here it is in piano, here it is in organ, etc...which I appreciated. My music was completly customized for me & our wedding day. Everything was perfect & we had so many compliments for having live music & not a CD. Sometimes, if there is a change or the timing is off, a CD seems off with the people walking. For example, we had some elderly people in the wedding so Laura could see them & time the music to their walk...the bridal party didn't have to adjust to the music; Laura adjusted and accommodated the music.

Laura was wonderful to work with and I was at ease knowing that my ceremony music would be perfect for my wedding day. She is very professional and makes you feel that your wedding is a top priority. I enjoyed having her play at my wedding ceremony! Posted on www.weddingwire.com

"I have sought out Laura's public performances since first hearing her play at a friends wedding reception 3 or 4 years ago. My wife and I asked Laura to play at our Wedding Reception. Everyone there commented on how good her playing was. Laura's repertoire spans many genres, and I go away from every performance mentally refreshed, and feeling much better than I did an hour or so earlier. If you're looking for good music for your wedding or reception, I suggest giving Laura a call." Posted on www.weddingwire.com

LOVED her service. Laura is an amazing pianist. She took the time to go over a ton of songs with me to make my ceremony perfect for us!!! She was able to play all the songs that I reqauested, and even worked with me the day of the wedding when I felt like we needed a quick change. I would recommend her to anyone that is wanting some beautiful music to accompany their magical day!!! Posted on www.decidio.com

The quality of Laura's service was excellent; she exceeded my expectations. I would recommend her to anyone. Not only is she a professional, but she is also a very warm and caring person. You can tell she enjoys her music and that she understands the importance of the events in your life. We used her services for my daughter's graduation reception and for her wedding ceremony. It was a very unique and enjoyable experience. You can't beat the price for the quality of service that you receive. We were fortunate to catch her at a very good time; her schedule allowed her to perform both events. Posted on www.weddingwire.com
