About Stan Wiest, Pianist
Stan Wiest began his lifetime career as a six year old carving his name into the wood of the upright piano his family had as a protest to having to practice piano. This attitude abruptly changes when at twelve he fell in love with his new piano teacher. She inspired him to practice long hours and encouraged his musicianship by taking him to classical concerts. Out of this puppy love a career was born. Stan graduated from Hofstra University on full piano scholarship with a brilliant classical piano concert for his musical graduation requirement playing Scarlatti, Schumann, Debussy and Franz Liszt.
As a performer in the late 60's Stan played all the major hotel and supper clubs in Manhattan. He also appeared as a supper club pianist on the soap opera "Another World Bay City" and "Another World Somerset" on NBC television. In the same era he was performing on stage Off-Broadway and in several movies. After that period his performances moved to the country clubs and yacht clubs of Long Island and the tri-state area. What then began as simple recommending of a few musicians when Stan was already booked for parties exploded into a full time agency - A. Wiest Entertainment Group which is extant to this day.Stan is President and CEO of this agency but has never stopped performing as orchestra leader and also as solo pianist.
"This album is a culmination of all the years of maturing as a soloist and orchestra leader enhanced by the many years of classical training." - Stan Wiest |
