Solo Piano

The solo pianist is the most essential and musically concise presentation PianistDallas offers. The Pianist is the primary foundation of what PianistDallas is built upon. Simply put: World Class Musicianship!

The following MP3s are performed by principal pianist Ken Boome, showcasing Standard and Smooth Jazz, Blues, Brazilian-Latin, Movie Score, And Pop excerpts.

Visualize your event being enhanced as Ken demonstrates the Art and Science of the Solo Piano performance. This skill of integrating Solo Piano Music into your Special Event is analogous to the “shoe that perfectly fits” or that “secret sauce” recipe .

Uniquely, PianistDallas makes that happen effortlessly by finding and playing the songs and musical styles that immediately complement and uplift your event theme. Ken Boome has honed his musical instincts through 31 years experience and 15,000 performances.

Our musical instincts are nothing but “hardwired”.

 Duos 

The Duo is what I call the next best thing. This two person group typically consists of Acoustic/Elec Bass and Piano. 

A “Duo” could also be Piano and vocalist, or Piano and Guitar , Saxophone or Trump[et. Many of our clients prefer the Piano/Bass combination. 
The following songs for the most part are Piano and Acoustic Bass. The piano used in these renditions is a Yamaha CP-1 digital. (Currently, State of the Art Model) We always bring our digital piano.( Unless specified.) FYI….. 90% of pianos in public venues are in terrible shape and make performing difficult, stressful and almost impossible for the pianist. Our Yamaha CP-1 digital ensures a balanced action, sound, and that everything stays in tune.This is extremely helpful for outdoor performances. We have augmented the following selections with a small drum computer for a slightly fuller sound.

Trios 

The TRIO is known as the rhythm section. It historically and usually consists of Piano/Keyboards, Bass, and Drums-Percussion. 

This fundamental unit provides every bit of snap, pop and crack that you typically associate as a full and comprehensive sound. It is considered the most primary unit, and is often referred to as the “basic” rhythm section. 

The Trio can also be Piano/Bass-with vocalist, guitar, violin or horn as the third member. 

Quartets & More 

The QUARTET is typically structured as the full rhythm section, The TRIO-(piano/bass/drums) with vocalist, guitar, violin or horn as the fourth member. 

This larger ensemble provides every bit of snap, pop and crack that you typically associate with the TRIO but with stronger vocalize, or stronger/clearer melodies usually stated by the guitar or saxophone or vocalist. The QUARTET is considered the fullest sounding four piece musical group.
