St. Maries Choral Arts Collaborative pianist
Emily Zawada
Emily Zawada, a soloist and collaborative pianist, cultivated her joy of music right here in St. Mary's County. Hearing and seeing local performances of all genres inspired her to create her own musical sound. In 2008, she started piano lessons from Donna C. White, a Maryland State Music Teachers Association instructor. This instruction allowed her to explore and share the possibilities of music as a soloist in local piano recitals. Additionally, her involvement in school choirs and the trust of her teachers gave Emily her first opportunities to provide accompaniment. From there, she quickly loved performing with choirs, instrumentalists, and her high school musical productions. Most recently, Emily has supported The Newtowne Players in their productions of Into the Woods, Matilda, and Freaky Friday and The Port Tobacco Player's Bright Star. She is excited to be a part of St. Maries Choral Arts!
No matter the medium, Emily strives to work and collaborate in settings that cultivate the joy and life music brings.
