Gideon Schlichter on SoundBetter

I am a classically-trained pianist with a passion for Christian music. My performances range from symphony orchestra to Christian bands and churches. I studied under Rice University for over four years and now specialize in bringing my classical experience to Christian contemporary and classical-crossover contexts.

I would love to work with you on your Christian music project!

I have been involved in Christian/worship music nearly my whole life and am comfortable in a variety of Christian genres. I will bring to the table years of experience in arranging and performing and am confident I can provide the piano/keys track you are looking for!

You can provide sheet music, or I can arrange the piano/keys part for you. Tell me about your project to get started!

Gideon is a masterful Pianist, and musical visionary. He superbly elevated my song and encapsulated exactly what I had in mind. Gideon is very professional, communicative, and punctual. I am 100% satisfied with my track, and will definitely return to Gideon for future projects. If I could give him 10 stars I would.

Interview with Gideon Schlichter

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What songs would be a good reference for me to understand the vision you have for your track? Are there any specific moods/styles/sounds you want to capture? Do you have a strict structure you want me to follow when creating the track, or do you want it to be flexible and allow for me to suggest potential changes/ideas I might have?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: If you're unsure about hiring me, just reach out and let's connect and talk about the potential project! There's no pressure to hire me once starting a conversation.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: When feeling stuck, sometimes I find it helpful to start over, and approach the song with a simpler mindset. It's very easy to over-complicate music production!
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Michael W. Smith, Leonard Ray Jarman, Keith & Kristyn Getty, David Rodgers
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I typically compose and/or record piano or keys tracks for Christian songs. Often times I'll add synth elements or even orchestral elements to songs, depending on the client's needs.
