PARTIAL SONG LIST

Please ask about any special song favorites. If you request one I don't yet have in my repertoire, that's fine--I love learning new songs!

In this list I've emphasized love songs, which I perform often for wedding preludes, receptions and anniversary dinners. But I've also included some songs that I perform for other events. So don't worry, I won't play the Andy Griffith theme song for your wedding prelude (unless you request it!), but I would play it for a birthday party for someone who would have fond memories of that show. And I've listed some of the patriotic songs I play/sing, but again I wouldn't normally include those songs in most wedding preludes, receptions or corporate events & dinners. (If you would like some of these, I'd be happy to include them--just ask.  I'm very grateful for those who serve in our military!) I did not include any Christmas songs on the list, because that list in itself is quite large. 

I enjoy customizing music for each special event.  If you prefer a certain genre or era of music, I'll gladly accommodate your vision of the event.

Almost all these songs sound great with just piano (though a few only sound good when sung).  And many of these I'm happy to sing also, if you'd like, though of course some are just instrumental. 

Over time, I intend to add brief samples of me playing (and sometimes also singing) many of these songs.  For now, you can hear longer samples (but fewer songs) on the Wedding Ceremony Music Guide.
