Collaboration

I am available to be hired as a collaborative pianist. I work with solo vocalists of any age, voice type, and level of experience. Working with singers is a more recent vocation of mine, but it is one that I enjoy immensely. I am most experienced in Western art song (especially Schubert), although I have also begun to explore musical theatre.

I can be hired to play piano with you at rehearsals, lessons, auditions, masterclasses, competitions, recitals, or any other performance where you require a pianist. It can be a one-time event or regular meetings, whichever fits your needs. Since each job is different, my fee will vary depending on how much preparation I need, and I will let you know up front how much it will cost.

I believe in ensuring that the singers I work with feel at ease, and that they are happy with the resulting music, and I always try to be a reliable and calm presence. I am not merely interested in being an accompanist, I will bring my own conceptions and experience of music into our partnership, and hopefully together we can explore interpretive ideals.
