Bassist Corey Schutzer is making a name for himself as a versatile collaborator in a wide variety of styles. A classical graduate of Juilliard, Corey now calls upon a background in jazz, rock, and popular styles on both upright and electric bass to accompany some of the best musicians in NYC. This past year, he has played in the orchestras for the Radio City Christmas and Spring Spectacular, the Broadway productions of On The Twentieth Century and Gigi, and recorded with singer Maxine Linehan as well as the Manhattan Contemporary Chamber Ensemble. He has performed with orchestras and chamber ensembles in Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and Bargemusic, and with singers at the Duplex and 54 Below.

For those of you who have consumed any amount of music during this pandemic, please take a moment to consider that it was all created by fellow humans who chose to share their expression with you. Some artists share their work simply for the joy it brings them, but many of us create and perform music as our profession, for the sake of our livelihood. This pandemic has shut down most, if not all, of our performance opportunities, and our industry as a whole has been left out to dry by our leaders in government and commerce. Enjoy this video by badass horn player David Peel and friends (who all volunteered their time and skills for this project), and consider donating to the #SaveNYCMusicians campaign (SaveNYCMusicians.com) or a local arts charity in your community!
