Esther Ling - Composing a New Career After Becoming an Engineer
Tuesday, 2 June, 2026
In this episode, I sit down with songwriter, composer, and pianist Esther Ling to discuss her unconventional path from engineering to music. Born in Malaysia and now based in Calgary, Esther spent years building a career outside the arts before rediscovering her passion for music while teaching piano to her daughter. We talk about making a major career change as an adult, balancing creativity and family life and building an independent music career without a label or management team. Esther also shares the stories behind her songwriting and why she decided to pursue a lifelong passion rather than stick to a conventional path.To learn more about Esther, listen to her music, or contact her, you can visit the link below:https://www.estherlingpianist.com/Liked the episode?
