Introduction
Hi, I'm Petra. I'm a SoCal- based pianist specializing in upscale corporate events, private parties, and luxury weddings—whether there’s a piano on-site or not (I bring my own!). With a Doctorate in Piano Performance and years of live event experience, I create dynamic, custom medleys of pop hits, rock anthems, EDM melodies, and dance soundtracks that capture the perfect vibe for each celebration. I’ve performed at world-class venues like Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach, Palace Hotel, Rosewood Miramar, and internationally across Europe and Hawaii—including my Carnegie Hall debut in 2024. Though many of my elite clients remain confidential, I’m known for expressive artistry, polished presentation, and a deeply personalized musical experience that makes every event unforgettable.

Petra was amazing!! I recently hired her a few weeks before my wedding and she was very easy to work with. She steered me in the right direction, provided good advice and was flexible with everything. She is very talented on the electric piano and all my guests loved her musical ability. I only wish that I had more time to interact with her on my wedding day as I barely got to interact with her. I would definitely hire her again. Thanks again Petra!

We hired Petra for our wedding reception and it was one of the best parts of our wedding. Not only is Petra an incredibly talented pianist, she is also incredibly helpful in making your vision come to life. She helped us to understand how much music we would need throughout our cocktail hour and how music would flow between speeches. She is very thorough and takes you through the whole process step by step. She was also able to play our first dance song with an orchestral background track. She made that moment magical and one we will never forget. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Petra was such a pleasure to work with! While planning our wedding, we realized we had some extra budget and we always loved the idea of live music. After searching for different ideas, we stumbled upon Petra on instagram. We really enjoyed her work and reached out although our wedding was only one week away! She got back to us and asked what songs we would like. She informed us that she was not too familiar with our selections but within 24 hours she messaged us with a video on her take on them. It was perfect! She was able to put together all of our selections and create a custom wedding processional. We are so grateful that she was able to squeeze us in and learn our selections in such a short amount of time. We cannot recommend her enough! If we could do it all over again, there is no doubt that we would have her!

Where to begin! Petra was an absolute joy to work with. She performed at our new model home reveal and added a beautiful touch of elegance, grace, and delight that added tremendous value to our event. Petra was patient and went above and beyond when we discovered our piano was not in working condition. She found a resolution for us that made this all possible. I appreciated her thoughtfulness to ask how to dress for the occasion, her professionalism, and prep work she did beforehand. She brought wonderful energy and engaged with our guests, performed song requests, and had a smile the entire time. Thank you Petra for making our event extra special, you are talented beyond measure. We look forward to working with you again!
