#TBT to my first week as a cruise ship piano bar entertainer back in 2000. I was living in Toronto at this time and after a bad breakup I was ready to take my life in a different direction.I quit my lucrative ballet pianist job, gave up my apartment, put everything into storage and packed a suitcase.
At this point in my life, all of my musical experience was wrapped up in classical piano and jazz piano. I had only started singing two years earlier and I was GREEN.
The worst part? I only knew about 10 pop songs. I was TERRIFIED that I was going to get fired, so I vowed to figure out how to be the best damn singalong piano bar entertainer that @norwegiancruiseline had ever seen.
I gathered all of my CDs and a notebook and learned 700 songs in 11 weeks. I went from being vaguely aware of artists like @billyjoel and @eltonjohn and became intimately aware with their catalogues. I played 4-7 hours a day, seven days a week and went from being a novice singer/pianist to being a damn fine one.
I then went on to do a total of 19 months over 5 ships, saving enough money to fulfill my lifelong dream to move to NYC and to pay for a good chunk of my fancy master's degree from @manhattanschoolofmusic.
The lessons I learned from that experience stay with me and have made me the musician and educator I am today.
Want to learn how to play pop piano like a pro? I'm running a live Zoom workshop on March 30/31 called Crash Course in Pop Piano, where I teach you the secrets of how to play authentic pop piano. Perfect for pianists of any level and IDEAL for singers! Link in bio or shoot me a DM and I'll tell you more!
