   Kate Moody: General Info
Member Since5/22/2007
Band Websitewww.katemusic.com
Band MembersI usually perform solo piano, but sometimes I'm lucky enough to team up with a singer or cellist or flute player. My album, "The Seeker," has an orchestra of FANTASTIC musicians from the Local 47 in L.A.
InfluencesTchaikovsky and The Beatles are my top influences - when I was a child my siblings and I would ecstatically dance in the living room to the strains of The 1812 Overture, and the first album I purchased with my own money was "Meet the Beatles," I must have been 9 or 10 - followed closely by Frederic Chopin, John Denver, Ludwig van Beethoven, Moody Blues, McCoy Tyner, Laura Nyro, Keith Jarrett, Claude Debussy, Joni Mitchell, and, especially, my piano teachers, Carolyn Denham and Marilyn Thompson.
Sounds LikeKate Moody :) inscapes reviews “inscapes” is Kate Moody’s fourth CD to date, but is a happy first for me. A pianist, composer, conductor, and educator, Moody brings vast musical experience as well as knowledge to her music, making it much more than pop or background music while staying accessible and easy to grasp. Emotionally rich and full of grace, the music is soothing and calming yet complex enough to reveal new things each time it is heard. The title is defined as “the essential quality of a thing, place, person, etc., especially as expressed in an artistic work,” and the music expressed here is both deeply personal and universally understandable. It will quite possibly be one of my favorite albums of the year... “inscapes” is an outstanding CD in every way, from the cover artwork and informative liner notes to the first note through the last. Discover the music of Kate Moody, and I think you’ll be as moved as I have been. It is available from www.katemusic.com, cdbaby.com, and iTunes. Highly recommended! Kathy Parsons Solo Piano Publications “It is so nice that you put our love to music!” - Ana and Peter R. long-time fans “I wanted to tell you what a gentle pleasure it has been to listen to Kate Moody’s piano music...she inhabits a magical and private place with her reflections in sound. It brings me peace.” -Alan S. “It's refreshing to hear modern classical music that is melodic and beautiful!” - John Iverson, Shades of Classics “Thanks so much for the CD (inscapes) ...I keep it in my office; it has a calming effect when I am hurrying. So I actually get more done because I stop wasting my energy hurrying. “ - Jon J., CPA

Winter came down to our home one night


Quietly pirouetting in on silvery-toed


Slippers of snow,


And we, we were children once again.





-Bill Morgan Jr.





Come and join me on an adventure in the snow, lets play as children,
build snowman, make snow angels and have a big snowball fight and
afterwards we'll snuggle up around a roaring fire with a mug of hot
chocolate. Want to play?





Wishing you a wonderful weekend filled with love and laughter.

When
you get down to it, we basically go back and forth between two basic
 emotions: love and fear. Fear can be healthy(fear of walking into
traffic for instance) but most of the time, it's an
unreal movie we are playing in our head. Fear prevents us from living our
dreams, from taking chances, from living our lives the way would like to. Our fears
hold us prisoner in jails of our own making. Only when we live through the eyes
of love and not fear can we be truly authentic and true to ourselves.

Today, I have a simple question for you. Please ponder it. And find a way to act on
it. What risks would you take if you weren't afraid?
Wishing
you a wonderful week ahead,

Love& Blessings Raine x

 One must travel ,
to a place where western comforts
are not easily obtainable..
 
One finds clarity while in the mist on the Ganges
  
Everyone should step outside their safe environment...
You will become much safer in body, mind and in heart...
 
Peace

Happy Friday 13th!
Energy is neither good
nor bad, it is how we decide to use that energy that defines who we are and the
kind of experiences we have. Friday 13th is a powerful day, but not
one to be feared. We must always remember that whatever we think about we will
attract into our lives. By keeping our thoughts positive and proactive this
powerful stream of energy can be used to bring good things into our lives. So don’t face today with
fear but look at it as a day as any other filled with possibilities, it is a
powerful day none the less so choose to use the energy wisely! Have a wonderful day and weekend too:-)

Magick is in the air!



It is a magical interval when the mundane laws of time
and space are temporarily suspended, and the Thin Veil between the
worlds is lifted. Communicating with ancestors and departed loved ones
is easy at this time, for they journey through this world on their way
to the Summerlands.



Wishing you a blessed Samhain/Halloween Kate

A " wish" is a desire without energy...
however , when you exercise your "Will Power" ..
you release the power of" Life energy"..
 
May your moments all be beautiful ..as you are.

Some days you may feel as if you are invisible, that life is going on
around you and you aren’t part of it. Remember that at soul level we are all
one, all connected to one another. It doesn’t cost anything to make the effort
to smile at the person passing by you on the street, to hold the door open for someone
or to exchange a few words with the next one in line, or to thank the one who
serves you in a shop. You may be the only person who will acknowledge them that
day. It is these little touches that make us all feel part of society, part of
each other. When we raise the spirits of another, that energy comes back to us
magnified, so everyone benefits, if we all did this what a difference it would
make to the world. Start today reach out to someone and be the one to make a
difference!









Have a wonderful weekend

Most people achieved
their greatest success one step beyond what looked like their greatest failure.
- Brian Tracy




Today go the extra mile; you owe it to
yourself and to your dreams to just stretch yourself a little further. You are
so close, closer than you could ever possibly imagine. Go within and tune into
your higher self see it, feel it, smell it, and taste it, now step up and claim
what is rightly yours! Never Ever Give Up!

Hi Kate, i hope you are making good music. I have started a new band at work. It's a jazz combo called 'The Quiet Men.' I was relieved to see the rocker guitarist and the r&b monster guitarist leave, and now we are putting together a new repertoire for a small group which is one guitar, one bass, one keyboard, one flute and one drums.
