Dr Sonya Schumann is an expressive and imaginative pianist, both in solo and collaborative performance. She is sought after as a lecturer and masterclass clinician at festivals such as Keys Fest, the Cornish-American Song Institute, the Red Rocks Music Festival, and the Gilmore. Deeply involved in outreach and inclusion work within the arts, she serves as a faculty founder of Keys to Inclusion, a cross-collegiate initiative to expand the standard piano repertoire, elevating works of marginalized composers. Sonya is also internationally recognized as a founding member of Piano Theatre, an artist group formed to engage audiences with innovative combinations of classical music, theatre, literature, art and technology. Her publications as an editor, compiler, and producer can be found under publishers such as Hal Leonard, Schirmer, and Schott Music.

Dr Schumann currently teaches at San Diego State University, where she also serves as Piano Coordinator within the Community Music School.
