I'm a stylistically versatile and sensitive accompanist with a great deal of experience working with singers, including everything from opera to cabaret to jazz.

My specialty is jazz standards.

If you are a student or amateur singer, I can help you develop your repertoire, find the best key for your voice, and produce lead sheets in that key that you can use with any accompanist or back-up band. I'll also coach you, if needed, on specific problems you encounter with pitch, rhythm, and phrasing. Custom lead sheets are only $10 each for frequently-called tunes (see list and sample below); others are slightly more.

If you are a professional with your own lead sheets (or arrangements) in your key, I can jump in and play a gig with you whenever needed--as well as helping you expand your repertoire, if you wish.

Call me at (415) 492-8196 to make an appointment.
