Katie's fall calendar is now posted. Check out the fun and social gigs she has planned under "Upcoming Performances"! She will sing a concert of Rogers & Hammerstein hits at the magnificent Hartwood Acres Mansion as a part of the annual Britsburgh Festival. She will also appear with Opera at Wallace's Tap Room for a casual night of music, drinks, and bites. The highlight of her fall calendar will be a 100th-Anniversary concert of Spanish vocal and piano works by Enrique Granados, together with pianist Eric Dzugan. After a successful collaboration last fall to perform the music of Vasily Kalinnikov, Katie and Eric are thrilled to share more beautiful and too-rarely-performed masterpieces in the intimate venue of the Frick Fine Arts Auditorium.

Tomorrow Katie will get the chance to debut a new role in a workshop setting. She will sing Suor Angelica in an informal setting with a cast of local singers. The performance will be repeated in the fall. Also coming up this fall is a second collaboration with local pianist, Eric Dzugan. Katie and Eric will perform a concert of piano and vocal works by Enrique Granados to celebrate the 150th year since the composer's birth. February 27, 2017
Eugene Onegin was a tremendous success for Undercroft Opera. Katie is proud to have been a part of Undercroft's first Russian opera production and opener to its 11th season. If you missed the live performance, you can catch the whole opera online on youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB4atYyHNAY Katie is taking a few months off to rest and travel after such an all-consuming project of Eugene Onegin, but will be back with exciting stage and concert projects in the second half of 2017.
