Corey Reese on SoundBetter

Let's make your song the best possible! My name is Corey Reese and I'm from the Greater Philadelphia Area. I have nearly 20 years of musical experience playing piano, keyboard, hammond organ, and pipe organ for various artist and in world famous concert halls and venues. I enjoy playing genres including gospel, jazz, classical, R&B, and many more.

My music journey started at a very young age playing piano and organ in church. From there I became a classically trained pianist with exposure to various genres and styles. I've had the pleasure of working with recording artist, wedding bands, recording projects, and live performances; as well as playing for shows, conferences, conventions, and on renowned instruments like the John Wanamaker Organ in Macy's in Center City Philadelphia and the Chapel Organ at Princeton University.

I am versatile and love playing all genres and creating a unique sound, especially on keys and hammond organ.

I always enjoy collaborating with my clients to bring their music to life, whether I'm reading from a music score or creating a masterpiece from a single melody line. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you as well! Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.
