After finishing the junior department of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, she was awarded the first prize for leavers. She then went on to study music at King’s College, University of London, where she graduated with honours, including a first degree for her special subject, piano performance. She followed these studies with three years in Austria where, at the Hoch Schule of Music & Drama in Graz, she worked with the Brazilian Pianist Sebastian Benda. Since graduating in 1993, Katerina has again made her home in London where she continues her career with concerts, recitals, and working with Martino Tirimo. She has given numerous solo and chamber recitals, as well as orchestral concerts in Greece, Austria, Germany, Australia and England.

From the early days of the founding of the Macedonian Society of Great Britain, Katerina has been an active supporter of this, and associated societies. In London she was a member of the first committee, and 1995, she was invited to Australia to participate, with a solo recital, in the opening ceremony of the third International Conference on Byzantine Studies, at the national Gallery of Melbourne. In November, last year, she was a member of the chamber orchestra which played in Dusseldorf for the North Rhenish Macedonian Society of Westphalia.

This year, she is again supporting the British society by donating her services for a recital to be held on March 6 at the Conway Hall in London. She will be performing work by Macedonian composers - her repertoire includes Margaritis, Astrinidis and Constandinidis.
