I am a NYC based musician. I have a pretty extensive background in vocal coaching for actors in music theater. I help prospective clients how to approach a song from both a musical perspective and a dramatic perspective. I create 16 bar cuts for auditions. I have the knack for selecting the right song for each actor’s need from my vast knowledge and library of sheet music. I provide the best piano accompaniment for any occasion (wedding, bar mitzvah, company outings as examples) because I can rapidly assess and adapt to your venue and audience no matter what type of music to make your event even more memorable. As a composer, I get real satisfaction from collaborating with a wide range of lyricists. The songs that are born from these collaborations come to life in their own unique way.

Started working on an arrangement of a Tap number for an extremely talented student. I was inspired by the late Marvin Hamlisch– included — “One Track Mind,” from Sweet Smell of Success; (lyrics by Craig Carnelia) “Fallin'”, from They’re Playing our Song (lyrics by Carole Bayer Sager) and “Smile,” from the musical Smile with lyrics by Howard Ashman.
Stay tuned for developments!
