“Hi, I’m Kathleen Supove and I play the piano. I work mostly as a soloist, and playing acoustic solos and solos with, uh, “accoutrement.” But I also play in an art-rock band called Doctor Nerve and the Susie Ibarra Quartet (its a quartet now). I’ve been in Patrick Grant Group which may be seeing a revival this year. And, in the past I played in Twisted Tutu… those are my main groups.”
Kathy also wanted to make sure we included this which she sent in an email after recording: “I thought of a piece that I wanted to mention. I think it’s really interesting, cleverly done, and I like the materials. It’s downright ingenious, and maybe people should know about it. The piece is a set of 4 Etudes by Jason Freeman. The public, visitors to the site, can create their own pieces out of the materials he gives, following a few simple rules. It’s really ingeniously done; I know, I’ve played a few realizations of them. He has also written a New York Times blog about it; I’m sure you can find it in their archive.”
