FIND AN ACCOMPANIST

For performances and auditions, it’s important to have a professional accompanist to help you sound your best. We’ve compiled a list of some of the local musicians who do this kind of work. It’s not a comprehensive list, but it’s a good place to start. For more details of rates and availability, contact the accompanists directly through the information listed here.

We’ve also included contacts for several area college and university music departments, where you can often find talented students willing to accompany. If you’re an accompanist who’d like to be listed here, email us. There’s no cost to be included.
