Mark Christopher Brandt is an American virtuoso pianist, composer and music educator with an established body of recorded works dating back to 1994.  He has influenced or taught many of the musical artists currently working and creating in the Washington D.C., Northern Virginia, Maryland area and many of his former students are working professionally throughout America and around the world as producers, recording engineers, arrangers, composers, instrumentalists and singers.

Mark’s music is lyrical, emotive, dynamic and rhythmically absorbing.  At home in classical, jazz, country, R&B and all styles in between, Mark is a consummate improvisor and is regularly sought after for musical collaboration and for his keen insights into practice techniques, music history and the inner workings of the artistic mind and heart.
