Finger Lakes Pianist

Andrew has been a performing pianist for 25 years. His style incorporates a wide range of musical influences: from Ragtime and Boogie to New Orleans, Jazz, and Pop.

Live piano music can provide the perfect setting for a memorable wedding in New York’s Finger Lakes. For ceremonies, Andrew can welcome your guests with an inviting solo piano performance, and then perform your personally selected ceremony songs, arranged just the way you envision.

For cocktails, live piano can set an upbeat mood with the universal appeal of Ragtime, Boogie, Swing and Popular piano–transitioning smoothly to your reception. Live piano can also make an exquisite accompaniment to dinner with performances of Gershwin, Debussy and other classics that set a romantic mood. And, if you’re also looking for a non-cheesy wedding DJ in the Finger Lakes, then you can take care of all your entertainment in one stop.

A student of Jazz piano legend Kenny Barron, Andrew graduated from Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University with a degree in piano performance. By his senior year, he had won a Young Artists competition performing Rachmaninoff’s 2nd piano concerto with orchestra. Andrew went on to play in many bands, perform regularly as a solo Jazz pianist, and work in recording studios as a session musician, engineer and producer.

If you and your guests might appreciate some live music at your wedding, solo piano can add the perfect touch.
