Life and career
Birnbaum was born in 1979.[1] He studied "music theory, chamber music, and classical and jazz performance" at the New England Conservatory of Music's Preparatory School.[1] He graduated from Boston College in 2001, and went on to study at the Juilliard School.[1] In 2004, he won the 2004 American Pianists Association Cole Porter Fellowship in Jazz.[2] Birnbaum toured Japan and South Korea in 2008 as part of the Juilliard Jazz All-Stars.[3]

Playing style
The Down Beat reviewer of Birnbaum's 2015 album Three of a Mind commented that the pianist "has a light touch, with playing that dances over the bars. He favors major keys, and his lyricism seems to sparkle".[6]
