Wilbur Whitta

I am an experienced piano teacher and performing pianist based in Glebe.

I have recently completed a BMus (Hons) in Jazz Performance at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, where I received first class honours. At the Conservatorium I studied under some of Australia’s most esteemed jazz and classical pianists. I was also the recipient of numerous scholarships from the Conservatorium, including: the Anthony and Sharon Lee Foundation Jazz Scholarship, the David and Nhila Dumbrell Scholarship for piano, and a University of Sydney Honours Scholarship.

My performance credentials include venues such as the Sydney Metro Theatre, the Seymour Centre, Foundry 616, Venue 505, Oxford Arts Factory, and Pier One Sydney Harbour, and festivals such as the Manly Jazz Festival, the Kinetic Jazz Festival and Peats Ridge Music Festival. Additionally, I perform at various corporate functions and weddings across Sydney.

My teaching experience has involved group and individual piano lessons in multiple Sydney schools, as well as in music holiday programs and regional Australian Conservatoriums. I have also worked as a facilitator for the Executive Master of Business Administration offered by the University of Sydney Business School, where I taught the processes of leadership within musical improvisation.
