Catherine Moulton is a pedagogue and choralist working in Marietta. Her teaching strives to embody music theoretic principles through vocal technique, stagecraft, confident self-presentation, and the building of other critical life skills. Currently she runs an active private lesson studio. In 2019, she co-founded Quadratum (with Brian Parks), an auditioned ensemble that strives to develop intelligent, self-reliant young people through rigorous musical training and unique, demanding expeditions. At Marietta First United Methodist Church, she is the Director of Chorister Choir (3rd through 5th grade) and the Coventry Ensemble (6th through 12th grade). The latter group places an emphasis on service and volunteers each semester with the Men's and Women's Extension, Murphy-Harpst Children's Center, and other community partners. In addition, the group tours nationally and abroad, and next summer will travel to Wales for a choral residency at St David's Cathedral. A graduate of CCCEPA, she holds a Bachelor's degree from Indiana University with additional studies taking place at Manhattan School of Music and Jacobs School of Music. During her time as Head of Education at The Strand, she directed a vast array of shows, camps, and educational opportunities. Once monthly, she plays Ursula Freeholder in the lounge act "The Freeholders (No Relation)" in The Strand's Lumiere Lounge. Her pedagogical aspiration is ultimately predicated on the proven idea that children are far more capable than society allows or encourages them to be, and that limiting musical study to performance unethically diminishes both students and musics alike. Her school model needs backers; contact her if financing it or providing infrastructural resources interests you.
