About Catherine

I’m so glad you’re here because together we can bring a new world into being! My passion is the creation of music that moves you. My compositions do not avoid the difficulties of life, but you’ll find that my music always has hope embedded within.

Music is transformative — it’s why I write. Composing is my reason to get up in the morning.I love nothing more than to hear from YOU! To know that my music touched you or made you think in a different way.  Send me a note! 

My art and life intertwine as I seek the extraordinary within the ordinary. Sometimes this means heading out into the street to protest injustice, to continue learning through research, or to work in my garden as I practice deep listening. The themes of my compositions range from intersectional feminism and social justice to female mystics and the environment.

It’s no secret that words are the heart of my vocal compositions. I am especially drawn to texts which speak to discovering the extraordinary within the ordinary — the moments of daily life that we might miss if we’re not listening.   

Most people don’t know it all started with a T’ai Chi Chih class I took when I was suffering from postpartum depression. I was so taken with the practice that I became a certified teacher. This joyful practice taught me to connect deeper to myself and the music emerged. I began to hear songs – words and music together. I had been a coder and a science teacher so this was new territory for me. But there was no denying that it was my path so I dug in and started writing and learning.

I hope you’ll stay awhile. Check out my store where you’ll find a variety of music for all levels of choirs, solo voice, and vocal and instrumental ensembles. My Projects page and Blog give you a chance to find out more about what I’m up to and additional ways you can bring my music to your community, school or church.

Have a wonder-filled day!
