[Musicians] communicating with pianist

[Jeanette Mill]

As a pianist I love a good yell from a band leader. But I use an electric piano which enables me to watch what's going on on the dance floor, as I am also a caller

 I second the mirror on the piano. At the Concord Scout House there is a car mirror mounted with a clamp. It's great. Although yelling is a good means of communication, imho. - Max

Any best methods for communicating, during performance, with a pianist playing an upright piano, who is therefore looking towards the piano and away from you?  (Esp. as a bandleader who is not necessarily positioned next to the pianist)



Could you mount a mirror on the piano?
