He is the Founder & Artistic Director of Classical Keys, a chamber music concert series in NJ & NYC which has featured top artists from Juilliard, MSM, the NY Philharmonic and Met Opera. Daniel serves on the Musician’s Council Board of Groupmuse and was named Top Piano Teacher by Steinway & Sons. His debut album, Mostly Scriabin, has been widely praised.

Violinist Suliman Tekalli has established his voice as an exciting and versatile concerto soloist, recitalist, and chamber musician. As the top-prize winner of the Seoul International Music Competition and prize winner in the Sendai International Music Competition, International Violin Competition “Rudolfo Lipizer Prize” and the Henryk Szeryng International Competition, Suliman has performed throughout the US, Canada, Central America, Europe, and Asia, appearing on the stages of Carnegie Hall, Seoul Arts Center, Wigmore Hall, and the Kennedy Center among others.

Julian Schwarz was born to a multigenerational musical family in 1991. Heralded from a young age as a cellist destined to rank among the greatest of the 21st century, Julian’s powerful tone, effortless virtuosity, and extraordinarily large color palate are hallmarks of his style. After making his concerto debut at the age of 11 with the Seattle Symphony and his father Gerard Schwarz on the podium, he made his US touring debut with the Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra in 2010.
