Available to hire
Hi, I’m Adrienne Schoenfeld, a composer and performer based in New York City. I create large-scale contemporary works with emerging artists, lead ensembles, and explore the intersection of live performance, electronics, and collaborative creation.
I earned a Master of Music at NYU Steinhardt and a Bachelor of Music at Berklee. I lead BeComEnsemble and co-found Kon.Trip, mentor composers through workshops, and have taught piano and bass to students of all ages. I’m passionate about building platforms for new music and sharing the joy of creative collaboration.
