ABOUT
Ricci is a freelance musician, audio engineer, and video editor. She received her Bachelor of Music from the University of Toronto, studying in the comprehensive flute program with a minor in psychology. Ricci studied flute and piccolo with Camille Watts of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra and Stephen Tam of the Canadian Sinfonietta, and has performed in masterclasses for Bonita Boyd of the Eastman School of Music, internationally renowned flutist and composer Robert Aitken, Kelly Zimba of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Denis Bluteau of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, and Dr. Christine Beard of the University of Nebraska. Having won numerous awards and scholarships for flute and piano performances over the past 15 years, she is always in high demand to play in ensembles and productions. Ricci has performed in multiple professional orchestras such as the Ontario Philharmonic, Orchestra Toronto, and Brantford Symphony Orchestra, and has accompanied various artists of note such as pianists Lang Lang and Eva Gevorgyan.
Ricci has gathered multi-faceted experience in the music field through work as Education Assistant at the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, as a recording engineer, music booking office associate, library assistant, and student ambassador at the University of Toronto Faculty of Music, as well as through recording and editing performances for local organizations and musicians. In 2022, Ricci obtained her masters in the Music Technology and Digital Media Field program at the University of Toronto, where she composed for games and films, and recorded an album of video game music called GAMEBOX MIXX.
Outside of music, Ricci holds glider and power pilot’s licenses and loves flying and travelling to be immersed in different cultures and to meet new people. To combine her interests in music, technology, psychology, and aviation, Ricci is interested in exploring the effects of music and soundwaves on the fear of flying. Her dream is to work with soundtrack music, whether through the recording studio or performing in a soundtrack or pit orchestra.
