DRESSED TO PLAY
DRESSED TO PLAY is an interactive virtual concert series that takes place on Zoom. Designed to open classical music to a wider audience and break down traditional stereotypes, the series presents full-length concerts by Katie featuring a program of beloved piano works recorded live from special musical locations. Experience the magic of a traditional classical concert, from the timeless music to the majestic venues, while enjoying an up-close and personal connection to the performer - all in the ease and comfort of your own home. And just like at a live concert, all performances are followed by a (virtual) after-concert Cocktail Party! So bring your own drink to the party for the post-concert toast, and then sit back and savor it while Katie answers your questions about the music and more! All DRESSED TO PLAY events take place via Zoom allowing for live audience interaction.
Check out the performance schedule below and discover just how fun and un-intimidating a classical concert can be!
