Tricia Edwards’ musical journey has taken many diverse paths. With formative years spent training and performing in the classical realm, to more recent years playing in the jazz idiom, to her current passion in exploring the world of latin music, Tricia seeks to incorporate all of these languages into her musical expression. She earned both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in classical piano performance from the University of Alberta, with summer studies at the Banff Centre and Mozarteum in Salzburg, Austria. She was a national finalist in the Canadian Music Competition and performed with the University of Alberta Symphony Orchestra and the Vienna Sinfonietta. Studies in jazz resulted in the release in 2008 of her debut jazz recording “Joyspring.”

Tricia now maintains a full schedule based in Calgary, working as a solo artist, as leader of her own jazz combo, as a classical collaborative pianist and as bandleader of the salsa band “Klave.”
