From Peter’s website: “I’m a New York-based composer and pianist working across genres in jazz and classical music. I am also the pianist for Vince Giordano’s Nighthawks, an 11-piece repertory Jazz Orchestra. Playing solo and with Vince Giordano’s Nighthawks, my piano work has been featured on many soundtracks, including KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON, JOKER, and the TV series’ THE QUEEN’S GAMBIT, MARVELOUS MRS. MAISEL, BOARDWALK EMPIRE, THE KNICK, and MILDRED PIERCE; the films KILL YOUR DARLINGS, BESSIE, and CAROL (dir. Todd Haynes); With the Nighthawks, I performed on the Grammy-winning CD, “Music from Boardwalk Empire, Vol. 1″ as well as the two follow -up albums; accompanying such artists as Regina Spektor, Elvis Costello, Liza Minelli, St. Vincent, Rufus Wainwright, and many others. In live venues, I have accompanied such artists as Garrison Keillor, Michael Feinstein, Bette Midler and others.”
