On both piano and accordion, Rodney Sauer plays in a wide variety of genres of folk music, especially music for dancing. He is one of Colorado's longest-established contra dance pianists and accordionists, and is sought after for the variety he can bring to a "waltz night." He also has played for Scottish country dancing, English country dancing, and American ballroom dancing. He is also fluent in silent film accompaniment, with a large collection of "photoplay music," and he plays classical, trad jazz, and French musette as well.
