Before Sherry K Plays.... All Sherry requests before performing at a church or other venue is:

• Have a piano in good working condition. The pedals must work, and all the keys must play. Sherry prefers a grand piano when in a concert setting, but will play an upright or digital piano if it's in good working order. All digital pianos must have full sized, weighted keys. If no piano is available, one may be provided for an additional fee.
• Have the piano tuned just prior to the event - this is especially the case for formal concerts. For shows at book stores, malls, coffee shops and the like, just having had the piano tuned within the last six months is sufficient.
• Expect a show to run about two hours with a break. If you have a specific program length in mind, shorter or longer (or even more than one), it can be arranged.

Note to Churches:

Sherry has been playing in churches since the age of 13, and knows that it is difficult to acquire the funds to bring an artist to your church. So, if cash flow is a problem, please contact Sherry, and she will do all she can to adjust to your needs.
