Kubiak has performed with major ensembles at Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, and throughout the metropolitan area, including appearances with the New York City Ballet Orchestra, Orchestra of the Bronx (principal cellist), Bronx Opera Orchestra, and more.

Presented in collaboration with Bronx Council on the Arts.
With the support of New York State Senator Jose M. Serrano this collaboration of LC in the BX and Bronx Council on the Arts is a celebration and salute to the 20th anniversary of BRIO*.

*Since its inception in 1989, BRIO awardees are selected based solely on the artistic excellence of the work submitted and judged anonymously by a panel of professional artists (different panelists each year) from outside the Bronx and working in each respective field. The Bronx has the unique distinction of being the only borough in New York City to have its own ongoing fellowship awards for artists.
