This week in Clef Notes, we turn our attention to an up-and-coming local musician with a bright future. Kara Huber is a concert pianist and is currently a doctoral candidate at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. She has performed internationally and has numerous awards under her belt, not to mention a Grammy nomination! Between her tour schedule and her studies, Kara keeps quite busy. That’s why I was honored when she agreed to stop by the WGUC studios for an interview. She shared the scoop on what it’s like to be a concert pianist:
She’s always known the piano would be her career path.
She’s had some exciting performance opportunities, but one in particular stands out.
She’s been fortunate to study with some of the world’s top pianists.
She’s an advocate of new music.
Kara has an exciting performance schedule planned for 2019 including local Cincinnati performances as well as her first China tour! Check out her website for more information and follow this link to watch her perform! To finish off the interview, I had to ask her a question I’ve always wondered – How does one manage to play the piano while wearing heels?
