Dudamel Conducts Brahms 2

Davies Symphony Hall

This meeting of master instrumentalists from divergent disciplines unites Bay Area-based accordionist Sam Reider with Venezuelan cuatro player Jorge Glem — a pair of kindred souls who perform the scintillating music from their new collaborative album, Brooklyn-Cumaná.

A San Francisco native, Reider has built a career combining various strains of American music, from jazz and folk to contemporary classical composition and more. A student of jazz piano from an early age, Reider discovered folk music in college and blended his various influences into a singular style that has led to collaboration with Jon Batiste, Sierra Hull, Laurie Lewis, and Paquito d’Rivera.

Pianist, accordionist, composer, and educator from San Francisco, Reider brings together various streams of American music, from jazz and folk tunes to popular song and contemporary composition. He has appeared as a bandleader and soloist at major festivals and venues around the world, and his performances and original compositions have been featured on NPR, PBS and the BBC. Reider has performed, recorded and collaborated with a range of artists including Jon Batiste, Sierra Hull, Laurie Lewis, and Paquito d’Rivera. His 2022 solo piano record of original music, Petrichor, got a four-star review in Downbeat Magazine.
