Katherine is a wonderful artist

…and a kind person who was prompt and professional. More important she has the ability to read a room. She understood exactly what this audience needed: nostalgia for the older folks and energy for the younger ones. I’m very pleased that I found her through Gig Salad.

Beautiful job

Katherine played the musical interludes for the funeral service of a person with wide ranging musical tastes. Katherine provided invaluable support and assistance in compiling musical selections reflective of the tastes and temperament of a much-loved decedent. The service was graciously and professionally enhanced by her participation, as confirmed by comments from attendees after the service.

First Baptist Church of Weston, MA

Katherine has helped us out several times when our regular organist was away or ill. I love having her come. She fits in so effortlessly. Katherine is always prepared, organized and conscientious. This past Sunday she came to the rescue on short notice. So appreciated!!

Lady Makes Beautiful Music!

I couldnt have wished for better or more. Katherine was very communicative from the git go. On the night of our Open House, she arrived early to familiarize herself with the space and the piano and then played the overall program we discussed, and was receptive to requests. She really plays beautifully; a joy to have the house filled with her talent. When the evening ran long, she agreed to extend. I'll definitely be hearing more from her!

What to expect

If you're looking for an elegant, flexible, and upbeat musician, you've come to the right place! I make it a point to listen to the customer's needs, and to do my very best to give you what you want. I'm very easy to work with.
I usually take a short break every hour and a half, if a gig lasts longer than that. Otherwise, I'm happily playing the music I enjoy! I also love playing for holiday sing-alongs.

She plays background music during the summer at Clay Hill Farm Restaurant, an elegant five-star restaurant in Cape Neddick, Maine, and enjoys playing for private parties, wedding receptions, and other events. She has played piano for ballet classes for many years, and also accompanies voice and instrumental student recitals.
Katherine is also a church organist, and is available for weddings and funerals. She is classically trained, but also enjoys playing jazz, tango, Broadway, oldies, and ragtime.
