Kate Moody: pianist, composer, teacher, conductor
Melodic and harmonic music that uplifts the spirit.

Kate studied piano performance at Sonoma State University before going on to graduate work in composition at the New England Conservatory. Kate continues to be actively involved in music education as a teacher of piano, composition, and general music studies at her Agate Pass Music Studio in Portland, Oregon.
Kate's current releases are "Welcome to Piania,"a collection of favorite original piano pieces, soothing and sublime, "The Seeker," an album of orchestral music recorded at Capitol Studios, Hollywood, and winner of BEST INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM at the 2004 Just Plain Folks Music Awards,"Grateful Heart," Contemporary Instrumental music, and, in Fall 2007, "inscapes," solo piano depictions of inner landscapes.

"(Angels & Eskimos) and its performance are thrilling with the deep logic of Soul. This is one of the nicest things I've heard in a long time." - Steve Goodale, goldrecord.com

"Just wanted to drop Kate Moody a note and let her know how much the listeners at Classical Faire have enjoyed the music from The Seeker." - KEDT/KVRT

"Kate Moody is widely recognized among artists and listeners alike as a composer of original works depicting the scenic beauty of the Northwest and the spiritual legacy of our region." - Fred Coleman, Seattle Choral Company

  • Outstanding performance by a solo piano genius
    author: Ion Soltan

    Kate is simply amazing. I bought this CD mostly for "Tahoe Thoughts" and I would have paid the same price if there was only this song on it. I cannot thank Kate enough for her inspiring work.

  • Beautiful, melodic music, very inspirational

    Beautiful, melodic music, inspires me while working in my jewelry design studio!

    If you like your music Easy Listening but also want to be lulled by intelligent musicality and depth, this is an album for your more refined tastes. Gentle and comfortable enough to be Easy Listening, Kate's style is also rich enough and thoughtful enough to be categorized as contemporary classical and dramatically emotional enough to remind one of film scores. If George Winston is getting too wishy washy for you, give this one a spin, as well as her other album. Relaxing doesn't have to mean boring.

  • WOW !!
