Come with me and listen to the music...

Reverberating with every rhythm

and nuance of the universal language;  

that unstoppable, unspoken force

that speaks to body, soul and spirit

 

Reawakening the senses,

and with a mystery and magic all its own, 

faithfully delivering its timeless message to our hearts –

hearts that love and rejoice and

delight and yearn and ache and break 

 

Reminding us once again

that we are alive,

we are loved, 

and we are not alone.

 Classically Trained and Improvisationally Minded

Colleen Adent is a classically trained, improvisationally minded pianist. She is a freelance musician, with over 35 years experience as a performer, composer, arranger, and teacher. As one of the Pacific Northwest’s accomplished pianists, the uniqueness of Colleen’s artistry lies in her ability to improvise as well as perform as a classical musician. These two disciplines are often viewed as two separate worlds, but Colleen lives comfortably in both places, embracing the strengths of each musical world to create a fresh, dynamic, engaging listening experience. Whether playing solo or collaboratively, sacred or secular, from the concert hall to an intimate home setting, Colleen’s warm personality and skillful playing naturally invite the listener to join her in embracing the moment.
