Hello readers! I know it’s been a long (long long long) time since I’ve posted here on A Pianist’s Musings, but today I want to share with you my newest album called Stratosphere Lullabies.
Stratosphere Lullabies is dear to my heart. I began composing the pieces for this album two years ago while pregnant with my twins. I wanted to write a set of pieces that were just for them – and it gave me something to focus on besides babies during my pregnancy. Unfortunately, my little guys were born 3 months early, so I had to pause the music for a while. And because raising twins is hard, I didn’t get much composing or piano playing done for a while. Now here I am, pregnant with baby no. 3, and I finally had the energy to finish this album. So instead of a collection of pieces just for my boys, this project is for all of my babies who have been with me during this journey.

Stratosphere Lullabies is available for streaming and downloading on all major music services (except Apple). Here are some of the links to get you started:

And over the next few weeks, I will be uploading the videos to YouTube. Here’s the video for the first track on the album, Luna:

The sheet music for Stratosphere Lullabies is available for purchase! Please note that every purchase from my shop is a digital PDF download.
Lovely stuff, Kathryn. I particularly like the unpredictability of the harmonies (Picardy thirds and all!) in the middle section of Hymn for the Earth.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked it. I love Picardy thirds, and it was fun experimenting with them a little bit in that piece.
