In honor of our upcoming concert, we thought we would have a little fun! What is that one song or songs that gets you into the holiday spirit?
We are excited to welcome Kathryn Kelly as a guest vocalist for our Winter Classics & Holiday Favorites concert on the 15th! Hailed for her voluptuous voice, Kathryn Kelly has earned acclaim for her “lustrous” singing and “world-class” performances. Kathryn, a sought-after performer, frequently appears as a recitalist and soloist throughout Hampton Roads. Recent engagements include Mahler 4 with the Virginia Symphony, recitals with Coastal Virginia Chamber Music, performances with Norfolk Chamber Consort, and recitals with Stephen Coxe, where she premiered a new song cycle based on texts by Emily Dickinson. Kathryn maintains a distinguished private studio based in Norfolk. She serves on Old Dominion University’s Diehn School of Music faculty and the Vocal Music department at The Governor’s School for the Arts. Her students have garnered numerous awards, recognitions, and scholarships and have been accepted to top colleges and programs nationwide. Kathryn holds a B.M. in Vocal Performance and an M.M. in Vocal Pedagogy and Performance from Westminster Choir College. Purchase tickets for the concert today at https://bit.ly/HRPHoliday24!
