ABOUT KATHLEENI started my singing career at the tender age of 7 in Perth, Scotland where I won many competitions including the Premiership award at the prestigious Edinburgh Festival. I performed throughout Scotland and broadcast regularly on Scottish radio, finishing my studies through The Royal Academy of Music.After Leaving Scotland and settling in Australia, I was lucky to win one of two scholarships with the Western Australian Opera Company which led to my becoming a Major Principal with the Company performing many roles including:-
Azucena (Il Trovatore)
Dorabella (Cosi Fan Tutti)
Nancy (Albert Herring)
Venus (Orpheus in the Underworld)

These were broadcast on ABC Radio.
It was during this time that I was selected as a finalist in the ABC Young performers Awards and the New York Metropolitan Opera competition.Whilst performing in Il Trovatore with the WA Opera Company, I was spotted by Opera Australia and asked to join the Opera Studio for young principals.
Whilst in the studio I was asked to perform the role of Malika in Lakme and as a result became a major principal where I went on to perform over 30 roles including:-
Rosina ( Barber of Seville)
Varvara (Katya Kabanova)
Suzuki (Madam Butterfly)
Zerlina (Don Giovanni)
Hermia (A Midsummer Nights Dream)
Brandamante (Alcina)
The Governess & Pauline (Queen of Spades)

Lola (Cavalleria Rusticana)
Pheobe (Yeoman of the Guard),
Lady Saphir (Patience)
Leonora (Triumph of Honour)
Emilia (Othello)
Jocasta (Oedipus Rex)A highlight of my career was when I was chosen to sing the role of Zerlina in Don Giovanni with Joan Sutherland and James Morris (Metropolitan Opera) and Maestro Richard Bonynge.
I also performed at many and varied concerts In Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Canberra.Other Companies I performed with were:- The Gilbert & Sullivan Society, University of NSW Opera, The Savoy Arts Company, Rockdale Musical Society, and Chatswood Musical Society in roles such as:-
Nicklauss & The Muse (Tales Of Hoffmann)

Buttercup (HMAS Pinafore)
Ruth (Pirates of Penzance)
Various role (Tarantara)
Pippo (La Gazza Ladra)
She also broadcast regularly on ABC and 4MBSFMRadio.After deciding to call it a day with large scale productions ( I think I needed to find myself again, to rediscover who I am as a person) I coached for a bit then started to dabble in a variety of types of music Including:-
Barbershop (Sweet Adelines). I was a member of an award winning quartet called 'Touche' and assistance director and section leader of Circular Keys Chorus, SydneyTown Chorus both in Sydney) and Harmony In Paradise Chorus (Gold Coast, Queensland)
I also branched out into alternative styles including Celtic, Music Theatre, Contemporary pop and JazzMy repertoire includes full programs of Opera, Celtic, Musicals, Broadway and contemporary pop performing to sell out audiences on the Gold Coast and Tweed, returning to Sydney frequently for recitals at venues such at Parliament House and the Joan Sutherland Society etc.Whilst all these different times of my life brought me great happiness and personal satisfaction, it is the great lessons it taught me; the realisation of how precious life is and how important are the people we surround ourselves with on a daily basis.
It also taught me how important music is and how it can define our lives and our moods.
It can delineate the expressions of our very souls and project that image through its delivery; such is how great music is made.

During my tour of the USA I did a video movie with Acclaimed author Lee Travathan and a Radio Interview with Eugene and James of IAD International Radio. I also had the privilege of perform with Eugene Ebner in Denver Colorado
