Welcome

I'm a composer/conductor/singer who lives in beautiful sunny Santa Barbara California. At the moment I am working on science fiction opera called "The Cradle of Dreams". Recently I completed a duet for two instruments, A Dream of Spring, in the case of the first perfomance, violins, and piano, and a flute piece built on an encoded version of Darwin’s “Origin of Species” titled 0r161n.

I run a few of ensembles in Santa Barbara and the surrounding area: The Santa Barbara Treble Clef Chorus; the choir at the Carpinteria Community Church; and a community early music ensemble. If you are interested in learning more about any of these groups, contact me directly at ksaxon@katherinesaxon.com.

In March 2014 Navona Records released Polarities, which included two of my compositions: East of the Sun/ West of the Moon and Vox Dilecti Mei. You can pick up a copy online on Amazon, or if contact me directly if you are local to Santa Barbara and would like a copy.

Teaching is one most important and enjoyable things I do. I offer private lessons in voice and music composition, and tutoring in music theory. For more information see the contacts page.
