The Executive Director of CK Ranch Publishing is Kimberly Russ.
Pianist Kimberly Russ Olka celebrates a diverse musical career. Before moving to Cincinnati in 2016, she spent fourteen years as the Resident Pianist for the Seattle Symphony at the invitation of Maestro Gerard Schwarz. Additionally, Kimberly is Principal Keyboard for the nationally televised PBS series, All Star Orchestra. She is continually in demand as soloist and orchestral pianist, performing with Cincinnati Symphony, Detroit Symphony, Kentucky Symphony, and Lexington Philharmonic among others. An active recording artist, Kimberly can be heard on recordings, Pokemon Re-Orchestrated: Double Team! (YouTube, iTunes, and Loudr), Pura Vida, with Peter Ellefson, trombone (iTunes), Short Stories, with Melia Watras, viola (iTunes), Bhavani’s Oboe, with Bhavani Kotha, oboe (Naxos). Most recently, she can be heard on WGUC-radio’s newest fundraiser promotional recording performing Madeline Dring’s Trio for Flute, Oboe, and Piano with Suzanne Bona, flute, and Bonnie Farr, oboe.
During the pandemic, Kimberly filled her time by building a website (https://chrisolka.com) for her husband, Christopher Olka, Principal Tuba of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. After completing several transcriptions of solo repertoire and etudes for tuba, she realized that a website to host all of her projects in one location under the auspices of an ASCAP-registered publishing company would be beneficial. Offering high quality digital files would offer convenience to anyone searching for some new music to explore. CK Ranch Publishing is seeking to expand it’s library to all instruments and various types of publications in .pdf format all about music.
