Sheila Weidendorf

Bio in Brief//

Something of an "accidental pianist," I returned to music a few years ago after a 20-year hiatus. I perform western classical chamber music, extemporaneous keyboard meditations (such as my new album, We Are Luminous) have also been known to provide musical direction for theatrical productions.

 

 I currently perform regularly with my classical trio, Trio Rasa; my improvisational trio, Trio Improviso; my new whimsical and expansive collaboration with cellist/composer Gideon Freudmann called CelloPiano; and have also been immersed in a long-term and ongoing Brahms project with violinist Tekla Cunningham and remain ever eager to continually broaden my musical horizons.
