I am a professional pianist and accompanist, trained and experienced as concert pianist, chamber musician, orchestra pianist, competition jurer, piano teacher, and every accompaniment role (schools and universities, in recitals, competitions, masterclasses, auditions, opera correpetition, vocal rehearsal/coaching, etc).
My sight-reading skills help a lot in preparing for a presentation in a short term (which, by the way, elevates the fee I charge).
My accompaniment repertoire is very wide.
