Tim Eddy has been an eclectic musician for years inspired by many different genres from classical, jazz, film, experimental, and musical theatre. He is well-rounded as a classically trained pianist, a talented singer, and a composer. Tim loves to bring music to life for his students and provide a holistic education experience, dipping his toes into piano technique, theory and musicality.
Tim received his Honours Bachelor of Music at Wilfrid Laurier University with a major in composition and a minor in psychology. He studied contemporary music composition with Linda Catlin Smith, and Christopher Mayo; and the piano with Heather Taves and Leopoldo Erice. Tim is currently in his final year of his Master of Music Therapy. He has been developing his skills in musical improvisation on the piano and the use of music clinically at nursing homes and with women in prison. As a teaching assistant at Laurier he has taught private composition lessons to second year music students. For his undergrad capstone he gave a lecture-recital exploring self-care in music, which featured his own compositions as well as the works of Scriabin, Chopin and Mompou. His graduating composition was a 30 minute opera for one singer and seven instrumentalists. The piece tells the story of a woman with depression whose dreams were transpiring as the fairy-tale “the Little Match Girl”. Influenced by film music, jazz, and classical, he is currently working on writing a musical and short piano pieces. Tim joined the Sound Factory team in March of 2020. |
