About Us

The History of TCSM with Marya

Allow us to introduce Marya, the owner and musical director of Tricity School of Music. Take a moment to discover her passions and dedication to a decade of music education.

Marya, the owner and musical director, grew up in her mother’s piano studio and excelled in her musical pursuits. By age 7, she was working towards a Grade 5 Royal Conservatory of Music diploma. After relocating to White Rock, B.C., she continued her piano studies, reaching Grade 10 by age twelve. Marya also took up the Oboe and played with the Delta Youth Orchestra.

At 15, Marya received her A.R.C.T. diploma and earned other prestigious certifications. She pursued music at Kwantlen University College, majoring in piano and minoring in Oboe. Her musical journey led her to perform with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and represent Canada in Italy.

After studying piano performance at McGill University, Marya discovered a passion for film. She later combined her interests by owning a video company and building a piano teaching studio.

Believing in a well-rounded musical education, Marya founded The Tricity School of Music (TCSM) in 2013.

TCSM emphasizes collaboration, technical excellence, and creativity. Marya’s philosophy focuses on mentoring students in interpretive and technical skills while nurturing their creative side. The school encourages students to learn music together, fostering lasting friendships.

As the musical director of TCSM, Marya, with over 25 years of teaching experience, expresses eagerness for students to participate in community events. Despite challenges in the 2020-21 season, TCSM looks forward to students’ involvement in local celebrations and community outreach, emphasizing the positive impact of performances on confidence and a sense of purpose.
