I compose music to create a space for beauty, hope and healing.

Maura Bosch is a composer and pianist. Her recent music for solo piano blurs the distinctions between classical, ambient and jazz.

Bosch started out as a composer of classical music. In the 1980s, she studied at Hartt College, Princeton University and Tanglewood. Then, over the next twenty-plus years, she composed mostly classical music, focusing on operas and songs as well as instrumental chamber music. But in 2020 she experienced a major shift in her life. After years of trying to ignore her mother’s Steinway M baby grand piano, which takes up most of the living room in her small south Minneapolis house, she finally became reconciled to it and started to compose music for it.
