Schnabel married the contralto and Lieder singer Therese Behr(1876-1959).They had two sons, Karl Ulrich Schnabel (1909–2001) who also became a classical pianist and renowned piano teacher, and Stefan Schnabel (1912–99), who became a well regarded actor.
Schnabel was well known for his German composers repetoire,
Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms, Schumann, and Bach.
The family grave is located on the northern edge of the cemetery of Schwyz. Since 2006 the town of Schwyz has declared the grave a monument to be cared for by the town in in perpetuity. This exempts the site from the common practice of removing the remains after a period of a ten to twenty years to free up the grave site.
