Raised in Oradell, New Jersey, Perez began her piano studies at the age of five at the

At thirteen, she commenced her studies under the mentorship of Eduardus Halim, a distinguished pianist and former student of Vladimir Horowitz. In 2024, Perez graduated from New York University with a Bachelor of Music Degree in Piano Performance as well as a double major in Psychology, receiving the Ida BodmanService Award in Women’s Leadership and the award for ‘Outstanding Achievement in Piano Performance’. She is currently pursuing her master’s degree in Piano Performance at The Juilliard School, studying with Orli Shaham and Hung-Kuan Chen.

Having performed extensively across the United States, Europe, and

Asia, Perez has performed on important stages such as Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center,

Weill Recital Hall and Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall, Steinway Hall in New York City, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the Mozarteum in Salzburg, and the Tchaikovsky Concert Hall in Moscow among many others. Her festival appearances include the Tanglewood Music Festival, the Art of Piano Festival, the Malaga International Piano Festival (FIPMA) and more.

In November 2025, she collaborated with the Juilliard dance department performing alongside Nicholas Britell with new choreography by Bobbi Jene Smith. In the past few years, Perez has been invited several times as a featured artist in David Dubal’s “Piano Evenings” class, where on one occasion Dubal claimed she was “born to play Rachmaninoff.” Perez was also featured on the Young Artists Showcase segment of WQXR, New York's number one classical radio station, where she performed live on air, and was interviewed by acclaimed pianist and host, Simone Dinnerstein.

Brielle is committed to authenticity in her artistry and advocates for

spontaneity and risk-taking in performance. She is also a passionate advocate for mental health awareness, especially for children's healthy pursuit of rigorous arts.
