SZARO

Greg Szaro is a New York City Broadway sub drummer, Musical Director and member of Local 802. He holds Master of Music and Bachelor of Music degrees from Berklee College of Music and works full-time as a theatre musician.

Greg serves as theatre drummer for Cunard's Queen fleet, where he is Principal Drummer for Come From Away and Resident Drummer aboard Queen Victoria. A typical week moves between the Tony Award-winning musical, Cunard's own production shows, guest headliners and big band nights in the Queens Room. He previously performed with Royal Caribbean International as orchestra drummer and Musical Director, leading rehearsals and preparing orchestras for major productions.

His book includes We Will Rock You, Mamma Mia!, Grease, Hairspray, CATS, Dreamgirls, The Wizard of Oz and Come From Away, alongside big band, jazz, pop and rock. He is a strong sight reader who moves from a full pit score to a jazz combo to a rock set in the same week. He studied privately with Mike Mangini, Kenwood Dennard and Yoron Israel.

Beyond the pit, Greg is an accomplished recording drummer whose studio work spans pop, rock, jazz and musical theatre. Based in New York, Greg is available for Broadway sub calls, pit work, studio sessions and tours.
