My Album Release at The Old Church!!

I'll be premiering my first album of original music for solo piano and songs for voice & piano. Spanning years of musical reflection before and during the pandemic, you are welcomed to come and share in these pieces of love, grief, meditation, healing, and celebration!  I will be joined by dear friends & esteemed local Portland musicians across multiple genres & instruments: Viveka Stuhlbarg, Jonathan Gray, Tim Lafolette, Angelica Hesse, Adam Eason, Bill Hoelzer & more. 

Through my extensive background as a classically trained pianist and two decades of experience as a collaborative musician and piano instructor, I hope to bridge the gap between musical artistry and the emotional connection we all share with each other through themes including love, betrayal, forgiveness, hope, healing, and delighting in our weirdness! Come celebrate this album release which will also double as an early birthday celebration for my shared birthday with International Women's Day! (March 8th)

I'm delighted to share music with my dear friends, vocalists, and fellow yogi/dancers,

Becca Stuhlbarg & Anita Stryker

From haunting wordless vocalises to exquisite duets in Latin, sopranos Anita Stryker and Becca Stuhlbarg will enchant you with their prayer-formances expressing gratitude, reverence, longing and even humor. Joined by talented pianist Liz Kohl, these songstresses will take you on a journey exploring "word and wordless prayer" - both masculine and feminine energies will be evoked and integrated, but especially the feminine will be highlighted and celebrated. With classical repertoire by composers such as Bach, Hildegard, Delibes, Ravel and Lloyd-Weber enhanced by a smattering of non-classical and original selections, this will be a delightfully unique and intimate house concert you won't want to miss!
