Research and Creative Activity:
Pianist and vocal coach Indra Egan’s versatility and dynamic approach to music-making make her a sought-after collaborator. Originally from Northern BC, Indra’s work as a répétiteur and pianist has taken her across Canada, including collaborations with Vancouver Opera, Tapestry Opera, and Opera Kelowna. In musical theatre, Indra has worked with Neptune Theatre and Judy Russell Presents, and on a number of cabarets and independent productions.

Indra is passionate about giving back through art, and raised $15,000 for various Canadian medical charities by producing and performing in eight annual “Indra and Friends” benefit concerts. She has also produced and performed in three epilepsy awareness concerts; her online concert “Unshakeable” featured over 100 performers, including Indra’s collaboration with Canadian coloratura soprano Tracy Dahl, and was promoted by Epilepsy Canada.

Indra has performed in masterclasses with Elly Ameling, Susan Graham, Margo Garrett, and others. She studied with pianists Steven Philcox, Laura Loewen, David Moroz, Will Bonness (jazz piano), and Lori Elder.

Away from the keyboard, Indra also works as a journalist. She has written for publications including The Globe and Mail and The Signal.
