About Gina Hall

Very experienced pianist available to play for functions and all events, I accompany singers, and am available for band or session work.
Pianist
Portsmouth
Public liability insurance of £1 million

I started playing piano aged 5 and have always had an exceptional ear for music. I have played for many years at Cosham baptist church Portsmouth and now go to Rowlands Castle church on the green. I was in a gospel band for two years then did my training in mental health. I have used music in my job, playing in day centres and for the elderly. I have compiled many sing a long lyric books and have extensive lists of songs ready to play. I have played for parties, restaurants, weddings and funerals. I have played lounge piano in many venues in the Hampshire area over the past 30 years. I play in a variety of styles specialising in jazz, blues and swing. I play light classical music and am a competent sightnreader attaining grade 8 abrsm. I have all my own equipment and p.a. System. I play a huge repertoire of music by ear to a high standard. I have taught piano at Portsmouth music academy for the past 9 years and currently have around 20 students of all ages. I am currently in the jazz band ‘Indigo Sky with singer Laura Batacelli and form a jazz duo with my son who is a professional guitarist. We have played at many venues around the area with good reviews. I was resident pianist at the Watermark Port Solent for four years, 8 Kings Road restaurant for two years and The rising sun pub for two years. I have played in a local wine bar with my son and at Portsmouth guildhall . I am happy to join other instrumentalists and accompany singers. I can play most requests. I am willing to travel within a 100 mile radius.

Gina Hall's Song list

‘Dont go changing’
That old Devil called love’
I'm in the mood for love,
The street where you live,
People will say were in love,
Let's do it let's fall in love,
Blue Moon,
Night train,
Billy Jean
Bohemian Rhapsody,
These foolish things,
Body and Soul,
All the things you are,
In the wee small hours,
Mercy,
Happy,
Golden Brown,
Take 5,
Every little thing she does,
Daniel
Don't go breaking my heart,
Laughter in the rain,
Ain't misbehaving,
What are you doing the rest of your life,
Music to watch girls by,
Wave,
I got it bad and that ain't good,
My Cherie amore,
You are the sunshine of my life,
Say a little prayer.
Don't get around much any more,
My foolish heart,
Obama di obla da,
Proud Mary,
Living doll
Downtown,
Smoke gets in your eyes,
Misty,
As time goes by,
Englishman in New York,
Johnny B Goode,
Elizabethan serenade,
Chanson De Matin,
Reverie,
Claire De Lune,
Wedding day by Grieg,
Pachabels Canon,
Say you love me,
Love really hurts without you,
All of me loves all of you
Dec 1963,
For once in my life,
Blue eyes,
Don't it turn my brown eyes blue,
Build me up Buttercup,
If you leave me now,
I only want to be with you,
When I'll in love,
Any Beatles song,
Somewhere over the rainbow,
Just a closer walk with there,
She may be the face,
Only you,
That's amore
Uptown girl,
Mr. Bo Jangle,
Cheek to cheek
The lady is a tramp,
Black coffee
All about the bass,
At last,
All that jazz,
Almost like being in love,
Sesame mucho,
Breaking up is hard to do,
Everytime we say goodbye
Chattanooga Choo chip,
Well meet again,
Don't sit under the apple tree,
White cliffs of Dover,
Bill Bailey,
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter,
Begin the beguine,
Brown eyed girl,
Can't help lovin that man of mine,
Summertime,
Embracable you,
Don't know why ( Norah Jones)
Three little birds,
Jammin’.
Dance with me tonight,
I wish I knew what it feels to be free,
Do the locomotion,
Cry to me,
Can't take my eyes off you
Cry me a river,
Dream a little dream,
From frame sauce,
Girl from Ipanaema,
Girl put your records on,
Got my mojo working,
Hallelujah I love him so,
I got rhythm
Let's stay together,
L.OVE
Make you feel my love,
Chasing pavements,
Moon river.
My baby just cares for me,
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps,
Sitting on the dock of the bay,
Sway,
Stand by me,
That man ( Caro Emerald)
Valerie,
Wonderful world,
I see trees of green
Wade in the water,
Why don't you do right?
Don't give up on love
Lullaby of birdland,
Love story,
Lego house,
Love grows where my Rosemary goes,
Lately,
Never gonna dance again,
Nobody does it better,
Ordinary people,
One day I'll fly away,
Perdito.
Perfect day,
Someone to watch over me,
Raindrops keep falling on my head,
Singing in the rain,
Caught in a trap,
Tonight I celebrate my love,
Summer breeze,
Everything I do,
Do you know the way to Santa fe
If you don't know me by now.
Can't help falling in love with you,
California dreaming,
God only knows,
Fun, fun, fun,
Chasing cars,
Yellow,
This guys in love with you,
Paper moon,
Angels,
Alright, ok, you win,
Strangers in the night,
Anniversary Waltz,
I want to hold your hand,
All my loving,
When I'm 64,
Anything goes

I can't thank Gina enough for playing the keyboard at my recent wedding. She was very professional, friendly and talented. The music was beautiful and added an extra dimension to our wedding reception. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend and you won't be disappointed.
