Create a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere with some live background music.
I have a digital keyboard if needed and repertoire can be varied to suit your taste.
I originally learnt the accordion, often playing in my father's band at various functions, later in a separate group on keyboards. Whilst I had a career in Information Technology, I took the Associated Board classical piano graded exams.
More recently, as a semi-professional musician, I've collected together a solo repertoire.

If my digital keyboard is needed (it is quite heavy) - then power point required and I will need to know if there are access problems e.g. stairs, and whether parking is available. Good lighting, though I can bring a clip-on light.
With my own digital piano I can bring some extra speakers - though it is rare to need it.
Standard performance would be 2X60 minute spots, plus a 15 minute interval. If bringing my digital piano then I would arrive 30-40 minutes before hand to set-up.
I am happy to discuss repertoire beforehand. It's useful to know the age range attending, as that normally suggests what eras to concentrate on.
Lovely music, feel-good style. Not too loud, so it can be enjoyed without being intrusive.
Let me know if a suit is preferred to smart-casual.
