David Saffert
David Saffert, like Liberace, is a classically trained pianist from Wisconsin. Past work includes stints with the Guthrie Theater, Oregon Ballet Theatre, Portland Opera, Oregon Symphony, Portland Gay Men’s Chorus, Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Portland Center Stage and the Interlochen Arts Camp. David was recently featured in “All Classical Radio’s Artist Anthology: 40 Creatives of the Pacific Northwest” and was knighted by Portland’s Royal Rosarians. His first solo piano album comes out Fall 2024 and you can order through his website at davidsaffert.com. David’s Liberace tribute has taken him to venues like 54 Below in New York to Feinstein’s at the Nikko in San Francisco to Liberace's own mansion in Las Vegas. He dedicates these holiday shows to his parents, Liz Larson, and his hubby Tyler Buswell.
