One benefit Kathy’s Music offers their students are teachers that are actively
performing through out the community. Their commitment to teaching and performing keeps them in top form and well connected with other artists in the Pittsburgh area and surrounding communities. This year’s line up of performances is impressive with a variety of
shows and venues. We invite you to take advantage of these opportunities and support our teachers in the process.
Allison Johnston (piano
and Kindermusik instructor) sings with the Mendelssohn Choir with several
events coming up this season. See this link to learn more: http://www.themendelssohn.org/

Jenifer Weber
(Kindermusik instructor) will be performing as a chorister in the Pittsburgh
Opera's production of Otello on November 8, 11, 14, & 16. The 8th and 14th
are at 8pm, the 11th is at 7pm, and the 16th is at 2pm. Tickets can
be found at pittsburghopera.org and start at $16. No one needs to buy the most
expensive tickets. Even the last row in the highest balcony is a great vantage
point!
A night at the opera
makes a great date night: great food and passionate music
making! For a
successful night, make a reservation at one of many fabulous restaurants like
Grit & Grace, Meat & Potatoes, or stop in at Proper Brick Oven &
Tap Room. Park at the Theater Square Garage (entrance on 7th Street off of
Penn) for easy access. Stay downtown after the show for a quick night cap and
dessert to avoid the parking garage rush!
Jenifer will also be
performing in Britten's Ceremony of Carols with Resonance Works on Dec. 5 &
6 at 7:30 and 7 at 3. This work is paired with Christmas favorite Amahl &
the Night Visitors. Tickets can be found at resonanceworks.org. (See Pam’s note
below as well).
Jenifer performs through
the season with Undercroft Opera. There
will be a special perfomrance at the Phipps in Decembe. That show is free with
admission to Phipps Conservatory. See http://phipps.conservatory.org for
more details later this fall.
