Central Florida Jazz Society Presents: Carol Stein & Friends

Carol Stein is an acclaimed pianist, entertainer, vocalist, and composer. She performs across an impressive variety of musical genres, from jazz, classical, cabarets, musicals, and pub songs. Her travels as a musician have spanned the globe performing all over Europe, Asia, and the USA in such places as the Montreux Palace in Switzerland, The Bayerischerhof in Munich, The Oasis Lounge in Hong Kong, and Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida where Carol spent many years entertaining as the resident EPCOT pianist.

Carol enjoys composing and spontaneous arranging of pieces during a live performance. She may take a child’s melody and turn it “inside-out” in the style of Mozart, and then into a bossa nova, and end up with a Duke Ellington swing. She always likes to add a special touch to each piece she plays, which is one reason she enjoys singing and playing as a solo pianist. However, the delight of performing with a group and the “magic” that occurs when musicians create a sound together is why Carol adores performing with her jazz band “Carol Stein & Friends!
