Kathleen Supové, Pianist

“What Ms. Supové is really exploding is the piano recital as we have known it, a mission more radical and arguably more needed.” Anthony Tommasini, NY Times

In May, 2012, Supové received the John Cage Award from ASCAP for “the artistry and passion with which she performs, commissions, records, and champions the music of our time.”

Ms. Supové annually presents a series of solo concerts entitled THE EXPLODING PIANO. She has performed with Yamaha Disklaviers, laptop orchestras, robots, and XReality. Upcoming projects include a collection of works based on Migration; Guy & Doll, a piano-electronics duo with Guy Barash; Anti-Depressant, a violin-piano duo with Jennifer Choi; an opera based on the life of Hedy Lamarr; and Shocking Red, a song collection with Michelle Shocked, based on paintings of Mark Kostabi.

In composition, she has been commissioned by Bargemusic, Ladies First, Composers’ Concordance, Kyo Shin An Arts, in addition to tonight’s project. In February 2021, she received a grant from the Brooklyn Arts Council to present her own work as well as that of other NYC artists.
