Around the World with Gabriel in Concert

"Look out Rick Braun. Move over Chris Botti. Gabriel Mark Hasselbach is a talent to be reckoned with."  Joseph Bertie The Warner Music Group

Gabriel Mark Hasselbach is an anomaly in the jazz world, an award-winning mad-skills hornmeister on trumpet, flute, flugelhorn and more, who walks a tightrope over the great jazz divide. Gabriel can command any size stage, and brings his engaging show to audiences all over the world. His concerts combine the Contemporary and the Mainstream styles, and can also get down in a MAINSTREAM & NEW ORLEANS bag.

Gabriel has 18 albums under his name, eleven Billboard hits (and several top 5's as featured artist with Paul Hardcastle and Bob Baldwin), plus the 2011 Smooth Album of the Year, and has performed and/or recorded with Jazz royalty for years, including Larry Coryell, Chuck Loeb, Paul Brown, Jeff Lorber, Marc Antoine, Greg Manning, Bob James, Warren Hill, Darren Rahn, Brian Bromberg, Bob Mintzer, Rob Tardik, Steve Oliver, and even George Benson and Gino Vanelli. When it comes to reviews of his  albums critics have always gushed.
