Description

I provide everything that any pianist can offer, but I even provide extras that you will not receive from any other pianist. THIS IS WHAT YOU GET IF YOU BOOK ME:
- 2,800 SONG INTERNATIONAL REPERTOIRE. I cover all the music styles that fits with the SOLO PIANO sound: Classical, Jazz, Pop, American Standards, Soundtracks (Hollywood and Broadway), Tango, music of the decades from the Twenties to Today's hits, Christmas and Holiday, Wedding, Country, Italian, French, Spanish, Romantic Latin, Patriotic, Traditional tunes, New Age, Neo-Classical and Argentinian Folklore. I also have special themat ... ic programs such as tributes to Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, Love songs, Disney songs, among others.
- SAMPLES RECORDED BY ME. I will send you a the list of all the songs in my repertoire, and all of them have samples recorded by me. Not only it will help you to find the music you want, but also will give you ideas of songs or type of music that you may not have thought of. And if one of your special songs is not in my repertoire, I will learn it for you and make it part of my repertoire!
- REAL FEEDBACK / TESTIMONIALS FROM REAL CUSTOMERS. I can offer you a long list of testimonials as well as names and contact information from past customers, so you can double-check what I offer. You will discover through them more items to add to this list of what my customers get when they book me. You can check what my customers have written HERE (CLICK). They speak about my talent, experience and professionalism better than what I can tell for myself.
- TECHNOLOGY!! I do not read the music from traditional paper sheet music. I am a "paperless musician", one of the very few performers in the world who uses the newest technology: I carry my entire library in a state of the art tablet PC, and turn pages wirelessly with my foot (this way I will not interrupt the flow of the playing to turn pages). Just with a finger touch I can satisfy spontaneous requests during the event, in or out of the program. I do not need special light on the piano to read, and even do not need an electrical outlet.
- WRITTEN PROGRAMS LIKE A CONCERT IN A THEATRE. I prepare an elegant display with the program, and make available individual copies for those guests who want to follow my interpretations. My customers can choose the stationery from my stock, to match the colors of the event. There is no extra charge for it, it is always included in my services.
- ALL LIVE, NO TRICKS. I play acoustic ("unplugged", "unwired") music, so even when I play a digital piano or keyboard, I do NOT use pre-recorded or backing tracks / chords. All what is heard is played and created by my fingers at the moment.
- COMPLETE CUSTOMIZATION OF THE PROGRAM. You choose the entire list of songs for me to perform, or I will select the program for you, following your directions and dreams.
- FULL-TIME DEDICATION. I am 100% dedicated to piano performance. When you book me I concentrate all my attention on your event. This is not a side job for me, I do not even teach music. Piano performing is my passion and what I do for a living.
- THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE WITH GUESTS / CUSTOMERS IN OTHER LANGUAGES. I am English-Spanish bilingual, and can communicate also in Italian, Portuguese and French.
- IF THERE IS NO PIANO AT THE VENUE, I have my own portable Yamaha piano and Bose amplifiers (both the best brands in each type), for customers who want solo piano entertainment for their events, but do not have an acoustic piano at the venue. (An additional flat fee applies for bringing my equipment). - AVAILABILITY OF MY SCHEDULE. Since performing solo piano is my "full-time" job, I can accept commitments for any day of the week, at any time.
- NO BREAKS DURING MY PERFORMANCE. I do not need or take the "15 minute" break periods, as is typical of most of musicians and bands. I start... and do not stop. For performances up to 3 hours I will not stop unless requested. And for a 4 hour performance I may only need a 5 minute break in the middle. That is because I love what I do, have amazing endurance, and respect my audience, knowing that my customer hired me to play the piano and entertain the guests? during the entire event.
- LIVE AUDITION JUST FOR YOU. Choose a couple of songs from my repertoire and I will make a video just for you playing these songs at my grand piano, and you will be able to watch it in your computer.
- PERFORMANCE AGREEMENT. I will provide it, signed by both parties that will give my customers peace of mind about the commitment and the money invested in the sounds of their dreams.
- PASSION FOR THE MUSIC. You will notice that when you hear me?
- ELEGANT AND SOPHISTICATED PRESENTATION. I will follow the dress-code of the event, and even match the colors of the event with my attire if you want (I have a large selection of gala dresses).
- HELP AND ADVICE, with ideas, due to my experience of many years performing in the finest venues nationwide and overseas. Also I will work with the event planner whenever possible to make sure everything will go as planned.
- PUNCTUALITY AND RELIABILITY. I have never had to cancel a commitment, and have never been late.
- EXPERTISE AND PROFESSIONALISM. I have performed in hundreds of events and so I know how to manage different situations. After being a professional in the business world (I am a CPA and a former Bank manager and University Professor of Economic Sciences), I have developed an ability to interact and socialize with people of all levels. I have been the exclusive pianist at the Pittsburgh International Airport for five years (2007-2011). I have performed at the Atrium of the One Oxford Centre in downtown Pittsburgh regularly from 2010 to 2016.
You can rest, because I will make real the sounds of your dreams.

Claudia Sanchez - Pianist / Keyboardist - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Event Location: Crafton, PA - USA Event Type: Adults Birthday Party 6th September 2016

This is the second time that I have had Claudia perform in my home. I would not use ANYONE ELSE. Claudia brings more than beautiful music (which make my guests stop and smile), her warm personality adds a layer to my parties that people talk about well after the party ends. You can hire someone to play piano music, or you can hire a true entertainer like Claudia, she is exquisite. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions or would like a personal reference

Claudia Sanchez - Pianist / Keyboardist - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Event Location: Edgeworth Club - Sewickley, PA - USA Event Type: Wedding ceremony and reception 24th August 2016

Claudia was not only professional, but very warm and kind. She strove from start to finish to achieve exactly what my husband and I wanted, and also took requests from my mother for the cocktail hour. We had trouble lighting our candles for the candle ceremony, and she was able to transition/repeat songs to cover the issue, without leaving gaps in the ceremony. I would not hesitate to hire her again for any other event and would fully recommend her to a friend for theirs. She went over and above in every category, not only displaying pure talent at playing the piano, but real passion, as well. Her name, "passionate pianist" truly describes her." "Dear Claudia, Thank you so much for the beautiful music you contributed to our ceremony and cocktail hour. You are so talented, and are also a fantastic person! We got so many compliments on how good you were and how nice everything sounded. I couldn't have asked for more! Kristin and Eric
