Introduction
I greatly enjoy playing for people and creating a special atmosphere for the guests to match the occasion. I think music plays an enormous role in any type of event, but this is especially true for weddings. My repertoire consists of many beautiful selections of classical piano music, movie themes and Broadway tunes. I learn music of any style very quickly and can accommodate any special requests. I offer a complimentary 30 minute session to discuss and help select the music for an event. My goal is to make sure that my clients are completely satisfied with the musical selections. I have a lot of experience playing for wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, dinner parties and other social events and my playing will be balanced according to the size of the room and will never be obtrusive. At all the events I have played people always enjoyed the selections and commented on the high quality of my playing. I hold Master's Degree in Piano Performance and regularly perform solo and collaborative recitals. I teach private lessons and work as an accompanist at Northwestern University. In addition I serve as a church organist at the St. Paul's Evangelical Church in Franklin Park, IL. Music is my life and passion and I am looking forward to helping make your next event a memorable experience.

Olga is simply the best. Her music was beautiful. She really transformed my dinner party event and added an extravagant experience that would’ve otherwise been missed had she not been there. If you’re thinking of hiring a pianist for your event, go with Olga! She plays everything and will make your event one to remember! Thank you again, Olga.

Olga was amazing at our wedding. Not only did she respond in a timely manner, but she also went above and beyond any of our expectations with the music. I requested specific songs for our ceremony — one which was pretty non-traditional. I sent her a YouTube video of a piano version I liked and without hesitancy, she was able to accommodate our request. Leading up to the event, she answered questions and took our opinions into account (including shortening an introduction and letting me know when the timing of the songs would be). On the day of the wedding, I was blown away by how beautifully she played and it’s clear how much talent she has. It elevated our experience, and I couldn’t have imagined not having her music at our event!

Details: Wedding ceremony • 76 - 100 guests • 18 - 30 years old • 51 or older • 31 - 50 years old • Piano • Oldies • Pop / top 40 • Banquet hall / ballroom

Olga was perfect. She was flexible in scheduling, confirmed and communicated responsively via text. She showed-up precisely on-time and was professional throughout. Her expertly-played Christmas music was the hit of the family holiday party!
