Meet the Musicians!
After falling in love with the guitar at age 10, Gabe Schnider has performed/recorded with artists such as Wynton Marsalis, Joshua Bell, Bill T. Jones, Damian Woetzel, Arturo O'Farrill, Jon Batiste and Stay Human, & Ben Folds, among others. He is a regular performer/bandleader at Jazz at Lincoln Center and has worked in New York City and beyond at venues including Carnegie Hall and The Kennedy Center.
Brooklyn Ballet is also excited to be teaming up with pianist Julius Abrahams, a collaborator since 2011. After finishing graduate studies at The Juilliard School, he continues to work as staff pianist at the esteemed Juilliard's Vocal Arts Institute since 2012. He has appeared in numerous performances with the Brooklyn Art Song Society and Gil Morgenstern Reflection Series, among others.
We can not wait to perform alongside all of these talented musicians in just two short weeks. We hope you can join us at the show!
