SALSJO, Petra

Petra Salsjö is a gifted and unique musical voice, quickly emerging as one of Australia’s most sought-after composers for film, television, dance and art installations.

Born in Sweden, where she commenced her musical journey (through the piano) at a very young age, Petra later attended the Victorian College of Arts in Australia, where she was awarded a Bachelor of Music (Performance) degree, and subsequently, the University of Melbourne where she embarked on Postgraduate studies in Composition.

As an accomplished pianist, she continues to perform recitals of her neo-classical repertoire. She is the creator of a collection of bespoke miniatures The Droplets. These works have been supported by the Hush Foundation.
