I love my work as a pianist/vocalist/songwriter. I enjoy entertaining and encouraging others to sing at a variety of venues in the Bay Area and beyond. There is no place I would rather be than behind the piano playing and singing with others.
I love creating and performing shows on topics everyone loves: The Gershwin Brothers, Rodgers and Hammerstein, International Favorites, The Standards You Love, A Bastille Day Celebration, Let's Celebrate St. Patrick's Day, Favorites from the Movies, Christmas and Hannukah Singalong, A Musical Tribute to the USA, Let's Honor Labor Day, Dietrich and Piaf, and many more. Scroll down for samples of my work.
“"Marilyn Cooney put together a beautiful Zoom musical hour for our seniors. Her throughline of International Travel, wonderful musical selections, and themed visual backgrounds made the performance seamless. It was enjoyable and engaging from start to finish."” - Kimberley Gordon, Peninsula Jewish Community Center, Activities Director 2022
