Repertoire
This is just the tip of the iceberg, but should help to give you an idea of what is possible. Not all these songs may be appropriate for you, but it can be a useful tool to help me get an idea of what you are looking for (or even what to avoid).
Want something specific that you can't see?
No problem!
Pianists are some of the most versatile instrumentalists out there and love to take new requests, so let me know what's going to fit the bill and I will make it work for you.
