Audition/Recording Pianist Resource List

Ah, audition season. The season we love to hate and hate to love. The inevitable industry cycle of life, and the cycle we certainly can't do alone. We're excited to share this list of Stagetime community members that play auditions and recordings.

Pictured L to R: pianists William Woodard, Marika Yasuda, William Kelley, and Felix Jarrar.

Whether you need a new collaborator in a new city, a partner for working on and recording new rep, an audition jump-in, or a COVID swap, locate new-to-you pianists by region and city.

When asked about instrumental, vocal, recording, and audition collaboration, most pianists were open to all types of collaboration. Pro tip: communicate clearly about your project details (date, time, repertoire) when reaching out. The more context you provide, the more directly your potential collaborator will be able to communicate with you about whether the project is a good fit.

Artists listed below have confirmed their inclusion on this list and can be reached via Stagetime direct message, or, in some cases, by email.
