Sarah Green is a Grade 8+ pianist who started to play at the tender age of 5 (the year was 1990). Through a flurry of music competitions, performances and exams, Sarah amassed her qualifications whilst learning new songs by ear when she found a free moment in between. Sarah taught the piano for a while before going on to build her experience as a wedding and event pianist.
The driving force behind Sarah's passion is that she simply loves playing the piano. She is also an architect, and understands how the space around us can be manipulated to make us feel a certain way - the same goes for ambience at a special event. She is passionate about the way the piano can be used to create this ambience, to lively, soothing or emotive effect.
Sarah is regularly asked to play at weddings and events throughout the North West and has received great acclaim from clients and audiences alike. She compiles a repertoire from a wide range of musical genres which is tailored to the individual tastes of each client. Sarah is emphatic in that all her arrangements are learned by ear, as bespoke pieces of music, and that this is something she is able to do quickly to accommodate your requests. The repertoire below is only a sample - Sarah is able to learn almost anything by ear.
Sarah is available to book from £200. Aiming to offer exceptional service whilst keeping your budget in mind, she invites you to enquire so that she can put together a quotation for you to address the requirements you have for your special event.
When making an enquiry, please give details of:
1. Your music tastes or any particular requests you might have
2. Whether there's a piano at your venue (if not, Sarah can provide one at no extra cost. The samples (right) were recorded on it - have a listen.)
3. The postcode of your venue
4. How long you might like Sarah to play for.
LAST MINUTE BOOKINGS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME - Sarah will do her best to assist you.
