Lynette Sawatsky

Lynette Sawatsky began her musical training at the age of four and completed her performer’s A.R.C.T. in piano while in high school. She holds a Bachelor of Education (elementary) from the University of Saskatchewan. Lynette has taught both group and private lessons, worked as a music specialist in the public school system, and participated as a guest workshop clinician and piano adjudicator across Canada. Lynette currently directs a group of enthusiastic youngsters from core neighbourhoods during a weekly lunch hour choir program in her community. She believes that music is a gift that brings joy and enriches lives. 
​
Lynette’s piano compositions are being played and enjoyed by students of all ages. Several of her pieces have been recently selected by Conservatory Canada for their new Mosaics repertoire series. Lynette's music has been described as “imaginative”, "charming", "lyrical", and "pedagogically sound." One of her greatest pleasures as a composer is to connect with teachers and students who are playing her compositions. 
​
Lynette has an active piano studio in Saskatoon. She and her husband Joel have four adult children and three granddaughters. In her leisure time, Lynette enjoys spending time with family, drinking coffee with friends, and going for long walks along the beautiful South Saskatchewan River.
