I am a jazz, pop and classical pianist, with 27 years of experience playing in jazz combos, pop bands in weddings, a big band in events, and as a soloist in luxury resorts. I am looking for experienced musicians with whom to form a band and play in public. Most of the times, I play pop and old school jazz standards, but am open to develop new material.
