    Go Canada! Tanya is a wonderful leader who cares about music, musicians, and community. What an inspired choice.

    • Joseph Trivers says:

      Yes, indeed. I went to school with Tanya at Brandon, MB, and these characteristics were evident while she was still an undergrad. She’s also a very fine musician to boot and an excellent collaborative pianist. Congratulations Tanya!.
