Alberta-born pianist Clark Schaufele enjoys a multi-faceted career, spanning genres beyond classical piano.  On both the keyboards and the double bass, he has been involved in many performances, tours, and studio recordings, ranging from classical to jazz to country and folk.  Recent performances have taken him to Japan, Taiwan, Australia, Austria, Germany, Holland, Poland, and throughout Canada.

As a classical piano educator, he has served as the Head of Piano and Accompaniment at the Regina Conservatory for the Performing Arts and taught as a piano instructor at University of Regina and York University.  He is well sought-after as an adjudicator and clinician, both on the local and national level.  Clark presently serves at Mount Allison University as staff pianist.  He received his Doctorate in Music (Piano Performance) at the Université de Montréal under the guidance of Canadian pianist and educator, Paul Stewart.  He holds additional degrees and diplomas from UdeM, Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, and the Royal Conservatory of Music.
