Piano Accompanist Loudoun County
 
I am a professional piano accompanist who charges more than $20-$30 for a rehearsal or performance.  
 
 
I accompany for Loudoun County Solo and Ensemble Festival and Fairfax County Solo and Ensemble Festival (District 11).  I offer special rates for Solo and Ensemble Festival.  View rates.
 
 
My main instrument is piano and and my secondary instrument is flute.  I obtained a Master's degree in piano pedagogy and performance as well as a Bachelor's degree in flute performance from UCLA.
 
A professional accompanist must factor in the cost to learn the piano accompaniment as well as the soloist's part, the cost to rehearse, drive to the performance venue and to deliver a professional public performance likened to a performance in Carnegie Hall. I don't reduce the piano score, but am able to play the full score due to my expertise and skill in piano performance.
 
A piano accompanist has a huge responsibility.  You must learn and memorize your piano music as well as the solo music.  If the soloist skips a measure or drops a beat, your job as an accompanist is to follow the soloist.  An instrumental accompanist is NOT the same as a church or choir accompanist.  An instrumental accompanist requires an in-depth sensitivity to dynamics and stylistic nuances in the music.  Your playing and articulation must match the soloist. 
 
I offer professional piano accompaniment for all instruments and can also provide piano accompaniment for school choirs.     
 
I CAN ALSO TRAVEL TO YOU! YOU MUST PROVIDE EITHER A DIGITAL PIANO OR ACOUSTIC PIANO FOR PRACTICE!
