Bob Schneeweis is an award winning pianist originally from the Twin Cities, MN.  Prior to moving to Detroit, Bob worked foremost as pianist, composer/arranger, and music director for the popular Minneapolis-based Latin orchestra Salsabrosa, as well as writing for and performing with the much-lauded Atlantis Quartet (then Quintet). An exceptionally diverse performer and composer, he has collaborated with a wide array of groups, from traditional to modern jazz, from hip hop and reggae to electronic music, and from world music (particularly African and Carnatic/SE Asian) to solo and collaborative classical music.  His compositions and arrangements for Latin orchestra, big band, jazz combo, string quartet, classical piano, and other non-traditional ensembles have been performed in a variety of settings by many excellent musicians from around the world.

Bob continues to maintain an active performance schedule in Jazz and beyond, having played at many of the region’s premier venues, including Cliff Bell’s, the London Chop House, Weber’s, The Caucus Club, Fishbones, ImaginATE, and many others. 

In addition, he maintains an active private teaching studio, providing instruction in jazz and classical technique, theory and composition, and has served as a guest teacher/clinician at high school and post-secondary institutions.
