Local artist brings jazz to gallery lounge Katie Rudolph brought her style of 'cool jazz' to the Gallery lounge concert series. Sondra Kinsey Capital Times Staff Meditation may be OK, but listening to live music in the Gallery Lounge comes easier and is a comparable "relaxative". About 30 people apparently agreed by spending their noon break basking in the syncopated jazz rhythms of the Katie Rudolph Trio, August 30, during the first of seven free concerts scheduled this fall. Rudolph on piano, accompanied by Keith Mohler on bass and Chris Santiago on drums, performed mainstream jazz versions of "Amazing Grace", "Georgia", "Put on a Happy Face", "Rhythm Changes", "Recordame", "Whisper Not", and "Some Time Ago". Mohler explained their selections were ballad, waltz, Latin, and swing tunes. Rudolph, a Harrisburg resident, has WPSH A or THE VOICE OF CAPITAL COLLEGE 63 AM "WE ARE ON THE AIR" ARTS & LEISURE been playing piano for 31 years -- since she was six years old. She has been playing full-time for the last 12 years. "The club scene is booming in the Harrisburg-York-Lancaster area," she said. "The per capita support for jazz is probably better here than in New York City." She also said, "It's probably harder to get work if you're a horn player." Rudolph has a double major in English .(American Literature) and philosophy from Hood College. "I learned to talk and think," she said. Up-coming Gallery Lounge events will feature Joplin rags, country blues, eclectic folk music, guitar, more jazz and handbells. The times of those events are Wednesdays at 12:05 p.m. on September 13 and 27, October 11 and 25, and November 15 and 29.
