Event Description

LOVE, LOSS, & LONGING | Live from the Rockies invites you to an afternoon of exceptional piano artistry, featuring JUNO-nominated pianist Katherine Dowling, who sees a concert as an act of service, an opportunity to tell stories beyond words, to venture into - and share - every aspect of the human experience.

It’s the inspiration behind Love, Loss, and Longing - a journey through music written in response to these experiences, offering listeners a way to dive deeply into reservoirs of sometimes untapped emotions.

Join us on this rare musical journey into the heart of this shared humanity, an aural refuge for meditation and reflection rarely encountered in our day-to-day world.

Praised by the New York Times for her “crystalline performances, gestural expressiveness, and careful attention to color”, and by the Boston Globe for her “effortless incisiveness”, award-winning “tour-deforce” (OpusKlassiek, Berkshire Eagle) pianist Katherine Dowling performs across the Americas and Europe as a soloist and chamber musician.

Katherine is familiar to audiences through regular appearances at Canada’s major music festivals and concert series, including Ottawa Chamberfest and Stratford Summer Music. She is further familiar as an artist-in-residence at the Orlando Festival (Netherlands) and a resident fellow of the Avaloch Farm Music Institute (USA); as a multi-year fellow of the Tanglewood Music Center, a New Fromm Fellow, and a BrittenPears Young Artist; through extensive involvement and numerous positions at The Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity; and through multiple national tours under the auspices of the Eckhardt-Gramatté National Music Competition. Recent highlights include her recital debuts in Vienna, The Hague, and Rio de Janeiro, and appearing as a concerto soloist with orchestra in repertoire including Benjamin Britten, W.A. Mozart, Colin McPhee, and Florence Price. She has premiered over one hundred new works by composers including Louis Andriessen and John Harbison.

As a soloist, and as a member of the chamber ensemble Gruppo Montebello, Katherine appears on nine critically-acclaimed recordings on the Etcetera label. Her debut solo album “Awake and Dreaming - piano music of Alice Ping-Yee Ho” (Leaf Music) has been celebrated as “impressive…compelling and virtuosic” (Wholenote), and has been nominated for “Classical Album of the Year (Solo Artist” at the JUNO Awards. Her performances have been broadcast on the BBC (United Kingdom), National Radio 4 (Netherlands), and Radio Canada, and her solo recordings have been featured on the CBC programs “About Time” and “This is my Music”.

Katherine treasures her collaborative relationships, and is deeply grateful to perform with an international array of celebrated artists. She credits her own teacher, legendary American pianist-pedagogue Gilbert Kalish, and conductors Henk Guittart and Oliver Knussen, as the major influences in her musical life.
