Join Kate for one of her monthly master classes at her home studio. This intimate environment gives the students an opportunity to perform with a top jazz pianist and to learn individually and in a group setting. Participate or just observe and learn. Classes are limited to seven participating singers and seven observers.
No master classes booked at present. Please visit my group classes and workshops page for news on fall workshops.
Each participant sings one song. You must bring a lead sheet/chart for your song.
5:45 pm Doors open.
6–6:30 pm Meet each other. Enjoy a cup of tea and cookies while we check your chart and get ready to sing.
6:30–8:30 pm Each participant sings, receives feedback, and sings again.
Kate will make a digital recording of your session so you can take it home and learn even more. It takes some time to burn it to a CD. It’s even faster and more convenient if you bring a USB Flash Drive with you.

With superior instruction and the accompaniment of a great professional keyboardiist, we gained insight into the nuances of communicating with accompanists, creating song charts, counting-in tempos and much more.” —observer
