Katie Baughman, soprano, is a recent graduate of Georgia State University where she earned her Bachelor and Master degrees in music while studying in the studio of Dwight Coleman. After making her professional debut at the Bellingham Festival of Music in Le Nozze di Figaro, The Bellingham Herald said, "Young Katie Baughman was delightful in her role as the coy Barbarina."
Other operatic performances include the roles of Antonia and Olympia in Les Contes d'Hoffman, Miss Wordsworth in Albert Herring and Nella in Gianni Schicchi. Katie recently returned to the musical theatre stage performing the role of Laurey in Oklahoma. Equally at home on the concert stage, Ms. Baughman has sung the soprano solos in Mozart's Requiem, Bach's Cantata 140, Handel's Messiah, Rutter's Requiem and Haydn's Lord Nelson Mass and St. Nicholas Mass.
In the past year, Katie has won a number of competitions including the Atlanta Music Club Scholarship Competition in the Graduate Division, the Buckhead Symphony Orchestra's Regional Young Artist Concerto Competition, and the Atlanta Community Symphony Orchestra's Young Artist Concerto Competition.
A multi-faceted performer, Katie is also an accomplished violinist, having performed with the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra, Gainesville Symphony Orchestra, Columbus Symphony Orchestra, and Macon Symphony Orchestra, and is a championship Irish step dancer, now working under the auspices of Young Audiences of Atlanta.
