Milana Zilnik of Ontario, Canada, is an award-winning pianist, composer, and singer-songwriter who has been a performing and recording artist since her childhood. A strong lyricist and composer in her own right, Milana’s style is reminiscent of Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, Michael Nyman, Keith Jarret, and Chick Corea. Soulful singing and complex piano melodies are Milana’s signature, but she embraces a variety of styles – everything from Folk, Blues, Opera, and Middle Eastern to her soft spots for Rock and Jazz.
Milana's cue won our Editor's Choice Award for her exciting, soaring music and original sound effects that set the scene for an urban scene that plays out daily in all our lives. Her storytelling Haiku, alarm clock's buzz, honking horns, add up to the big daily commute. Add dreamy female vocals, piano and cello and, well, it doesn't get any better than this!!!

Milana was born in Ukraine, lived in Israel for many years, and moved to Canada in 2008. Living in different countries has enriched her musical experiences and storytelling. Her songs touch on issues of belonging, identity, the inner child, war and peace, and life and death.
Milana has released eight albums (solo piano, original songs and New Age) and published a book with original scores for solo piano. Since 2012, in addition to performing live and releasing original albums, she has also taken piano and vocal performance in a commercial direction by doing session recordings, arranging, and composing for Films.
