Katie has had a passion for singing and performing for as long as she can remember.
This passion has been nurtured through being a member of the Kelowna Community Youth Choir for nearly 10 years as well as productions with Kelowna Actors Studio and Opera Kelowna. She has now found her musical home in Candesca. When she is not singing, Katie can be found studying Political Science and Sociology at UBC Okanagan.
Talented Vocalists – Chosen through audition, each member of Candesca excels in different musical genres, from high-level instrumentalists and composers, to musical theatre performers, dancers, and actors.
Candesca, meaning ‘beginning to shine’ is an award-winning singing ensemble of young women, based in Kelowna, British Columbia. Founded in 2007 by Alexandra Babbel, Candesca fuses a variety of musical repertoire, with couture gowns and contemporary staging.
World-travelled- Candesca has toured through 11 countries, and performed for audiences around the world, including several countries in Europe, culminating in a special visit to Kelowna’s sister city, Veendam (Netherlands), and moving performances at Trinity Wall Street Church, and St. Paul’s Chapel, both at Ground Zero in New York City.
