We are elated to welcome the spectacular, stunning, and singular Jamie Barton to the Collaborative Piano Institute and Vocal Academy Online 2020! Ms. Barton career is what dreams are made of: a frequent winner at the world’s most prestigious competitions, a regular performer in the famous and most-loved opera houses and concert stages, and a successful recording artist!
In addition, Ms. Barton is increasingly recognized for how she uses her powerful instrument offstage – lifting up women, queer people, and other marginalized communities. Her lively social media presence on Instagram and Twitter serves as a hub for conversations about body positivity, diet culture, social justice issues, and LGBTQ+ rights. Jamie has recently brought her perspective to The Guilty Feminist, Slate, Studio 360, Front Row Live, The Times, Observer | The Guardian, San Francisco Chronicle, and cover stories in Classical Music Magazine and BBC Music Magazine. It is no wonder that she was named 2020 Personality of the Year at the BBC Music Magazine Awards.
We cannot wait to hear her discuss her career path, partnership, and social advocacy with the participants of the Institute!
