Daniel Schlosberg has been described as an "expert pianist" (Boston Globe), and his performances have been praised for their "intellect and passion" (Washington Post). As a collaborative pianist, Tim Smith of the Baltimore Sun wrote: "Daniel Schlosberg was a model accompanist, bringing out the remarkable richness of the piano writing."
In recent seasons, he has given solo and chamber music recitals at a number of important venues and series, including Bargemusic (Brooklyn), Austrian Cultural Forum (New York City), Sundays Live (Los Angeles), Dame Myra Hess Series (Chicago), Phillips Collection, and at the embassies of Romania, Israel, Austria and Germany in Washington, D.C. He appears frequently on radio stations nationwide.
He is an avid proponent of new music has collaborated with Third Coast Percussion, the International Contemporary Ensemble, Ensemble Dal Niente, Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble and pianist Amy Briggs. In 2009, he gave the US premiere of renowned composer Kaija Saariaho's "Calices" with violinist Austin Wulliman.
Another particular interest is song accompaniment, and he has a long standing duo with the baritone Ryan de Ryke. In 2007, Mr. Schlosberg curated and performed in a series of six concerts nationwide exploring the early chamber music and lieder of Erich Wolfgang Korngold, and in 2010 he directed the "Baltimore Lieder Weekend" which explored in depth the songs of Hugo Wolf.
He has served as a staff accompanist for two prominent music festivals: the Perlman Music Program (Shelter Island, NY and Sarasota, Fl.), and for the vocal program of the Steans Institute at Ravinia. In the summer of 2000, Mr. Schlosberg held the Leonard Bernstein Fellowship in Piano at Tanglewood. The same summer, he took part in a special collaboration with the Paul Taylor Dance Company at the Jacob's Pillow Festival in performances of solo Debussy. Other appearances of note include at Weill and Zankel Halls, and with the Notre Dame Chamber Players.
Mr. Schlosberg grew up in Los Angeles, and studied at the Peabody Conservatory with Ann Schein and at Stony Brook University with Gilbert Kalish. He also took supplementary courses in song accompaniment as a full-scholarship student at the Britten Pears Institute (Aldebugh) and the Franz Schubert Institut (Baden). He also holds a B.A. in History from Johns Hopkins University, where he graduated with highest honors.
He is currently Artist-in-Residence in the Music Department at the University of Notre Dame.
