                                        I'll play solo piano or put together any jazz combo you'd like.         Maybe for background jazz you can go with a nice piano/bass                                        or piano/guitar duo, or  for a more cocktail jazz kind of vibe you                                        may want a tasty  piano/bass/drums or  piano/bass/sax trio.
