Behind the Work: Dr. Edel Sanders
My heart lies at the intersection of creating music, discovering psychological connections and using the profound benefits of musical engagement to help others flourish.
This framework is built upon extensive research, international performance and over 20 years of educational mastery:
• Academic & Research Excellence: Holding three degrees from Columbia University and a PhD from the University of Cambridge, my background includes serving nearly a decade as a University Dean, teaching at five universities and publishing over 25 peer-reviewed scientific studies as a Senior Researcher.
• Global Artistic Career: A seasoned international performer across American, British and European stages, my creative work has earned prestigious honors including the ASCAP Classical Music Award and the SPIRIT Jazz Award.
Through my work and my students’ experiences, I have seen firsthand that musical expression is far more than entertainment. The profound benefits of musical engagement are intrinsic to being human—making it an invaluable tool for creative expression, emotional regulation, cognitive evolution, inner peace and societal harmony.
Through consultations, lessons, lectures, masterclasses, writings, courses, compositions and performances, I invite you to join me in bridging art and science to elevate your spirit, mind, artistry and well-being.
