About the Composer: Kathleen Massoud

Kathleen Massoud

Kathleen Massoud studied piano performance at Hartt College of Music in Hartford, Connecticut and the Longy School of Music in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She founded the Massoud Piano Studio in New Bedford, Massachusetts in 1980 and has spent over two decades teaching piano to students of all ages. An active member of the National Guild of Piano Teachers, she has served as president of the Southeastern Chapter of the Massachusetts Music Teachers Association.

Beyond the studio, Massoud's musical life extends into her church community, where she sings in the choir and contributes volunteer work. Her creative interests span multiple disciplines: she writes poetry, bringing a lyricist's sensibility to her compositions. These varied pursuits inform her work as a composer, particularly in sacred music where poetry and melody intertwine.

Why we love this

This piece carries genuine spiritual warmth without relying on technical pyrotechnics, making it an accessible choice for intermediate pianists seeking meaningful sacred repertoire. Massoud's church involvement and poetic sensibilities shine through in the writing: the piece breathes naturally and rewards attention to phrasing rather than speed.

What to expect

The music evokes a moment of quiet reflection tinged with hope. Gentle and unrushed, it conveys protection and peace rather than bombast, creating an atmosphere that invites listeners inward.

Who it's for

Intermediate pianists preparing sacred music for church services, Sunday recitals, or liturgical performances will find a piece that sits comfortably under the hands while offering genuine emotional content. Students looking to expand their sacred repertoire beyond hymns and traditional chorale settings will appreciate Massoud's modern yet reverent approach.

How to get the most out of it

  • Shape the melodic line with your right hand as if singing; sacred pieces ask for vocal quality even from the piano, so prioritize tonal control over volume
  • Let the harmonic foundation in the left hand support without overwhelming; think of it as accompaniment to your own inner voice rather than a competing element
  • Take time during the opening passage to establish the emotional tone; rushing sacred music flattens its impact
  • Use the sustain pedal thoughtfully to let harmonies blend, but change it when chord colors shift to keep textures clear

How to use it

Consider programming this during prelude or postlude moments in a worship setting, or pairing it with other intermediate sacred solos for a recital section on spiritual themes. Its modest four-page length makes it practical for a student recital where you want to feature varied composers without overwhelming a single performer.

Skills your students will build

  • Singing through the piano with a sustained legato technique
  • Balancing melody and accompaniment across both hands
  • Interpreting sacred music with appropriate reverence and restraint
  • Using pedal expressively to enhance harmonic resonance
