About Cory Gabel

Cory Gabel is a composer, producer, and author from Connecticut.

From his early days as an indie-band frontman in Los Angeles, Cory has evolved from pianist to producer, from songwriter to storyteller — carving a path through instrumental albums, modern dance scores — including the acclaimed The Casket Girls — and collaborations across film and theater. His music fuses the dynamic edge of alternative rock with the atmospheric sensibilities of minimalist and cinematic composition.

This spring marks a convergence of years of work arriving at once. Tarot Ballet — a sweeping sonic anthology reframing more than a decade of original compositions for dance — is releasing now, one movement at a time, through April. In May, the full dance pop soundtrack to Anthony and Cleopatra sees its first-ever release, just ahead of the production's return to the stage in early June.

This summer brings The Haunting of Jericho Poe, a gothic musical novel years in the making. And in October, Cory unveils SALEM — a new stage work that moves at the edge of myth, memory, and something darker. Rounding out the year, Psyche Dissecta, his forthcoming collection of solo piano music, arrives as a quiet counterweight to everything that came before.

Cory also performs regularly as a singer, guitarist, and pianist, sharing his music in intimate live settings.
