“The power of absolute love is a raging fire of uncontainable majesty that consumes any and all who comes too close to its flames.” Spiritual Teacher Andrew Cohen

 Described by the New York Times as "....liquid, dreamlike," Katya is world renowned in the purest sense.   She is proud and inspired to share her musical gift with presidents, dignitaries and the poorest citizens in countries throughout the world.

Her vast travels to countries around the globe have awarded her great esteem and tremendous personal satisfaction.  She was honored to receive the prestigious Guzi Peace Prize from Philippine President Gloria Arroyo. 

Despite the dangers involved, Katya ventured into Africa to offer her music as serenity and tranquility to the people of Kenya, amidst the country's riots and political unrest.   From Africa, she flew immediately to Ecuador, where she performed a huge concert to benefit the country’s poorest children. 

And only a few months afterwards, she was honored to perform a private concert for former President George Bush and First Lady Barbara Bush.  She even made musical history, when she became the first female solo pianist to grace the stage of Carnegie Hall’s historic Isaac Stern Auditorium for the tenth time.
