"I have always loved the rain... the soothing sound of rain on the roof, dancing and playing in the warm summer rain as a child, the wistful feeling of staring out the window as the rain falls outside... Rain calls out a more tender, emotional side of my being, connecting me with the natural world and with my heart. It is this same experience that I look for in my time at the piano. My greatest wish is that this music bring peace and gentle opening to the hearts of those who listen. Thank you for sharing a part of my world with me." Karen

Artist history:
Karen’s musical life began before birth as her mother played the classics on the family’s baby grand piano. At age five Karen begged for lessons, and twelve years later graduated with honors from the Wilmington Music School in her home town in Delaware. In college, Karen majored in Physics, but when she needed a break from her studies, was once again drawn to the piano. As she released pent up feelings, she learned how to improvise, and began creating her own distinctive musical vocabulary.

Karen then moved to Northwest Washington and began working as a computer programmer, developing her music on the side. In the early ’80s, influenced Keith Jarrett and George Winston, Karen began taking composing seriously. Her first pieces were released in 1987 on a cassette album entitled Turquoise Flame.

In 1996 Karen ended her programming career to pursue music full time. In 1999 she released her first CD, Heart of the Rain. The album has received excellent reviews from the press, and is now heard on over 30 New Age radio programs across the country.
