Praised for ‘versatility and virtuosity’ (RITMO) in concerts ‘thrilling from beginning to end’ (Cleveland Classical), Katelyn Emerson concertises throughout North America, Europe, and Asia, showcasing repertoire spanning the 14th—21st centuries and lecturing on topics ranging from organ interpretation and healthy practice techniques to performance studies and empirical music analysis. In addition to teaching privately and coaching students preparing for international playing competitions and exams, Katelyn frequently accepts invitations to join the faculties of organ academies in France, the UK, the USA, and Canada and to adjudicate international organ competitions. Laureate of organ competitions on three continents, she also volunteers with charitable organisations such as Scotland's Sowne of Organe to help increase public awareness of the cultural and technological significance of historic and newly built instruments. Katelyn holds degrees from Colorado State University (Certificate in Occupational Ergonomics), Stuttgart Musikhochschule (MA) Conservatoire de Toulouse (perfectionnement), and Oberlin College & Conservatory (BA/BMus). www.katelynemerson.com
