Revered classical mandolinist Catharina Lichtenberg returns to the Symposium this year, providing a European classical perspective on technique and repertoire. Her masterful performances stun the greater Symposium audience, at times using the rarely seen and uniquely tuned Baroque mandolin, offer glimpses into the historical lineage of mandolin music.

In her classes, Catharina introduces students to techniques integral to mastering classical mandolin pieces — arpeggios, cross-picking and tremolo in the classical style. This year, Caterina will present an elective class with Mike Marshall, Art of the Duo, which will focus on two pieces from their new CD and recent international tours. In the ensemble setting, Caterina applies her high-level expertise as an arranger and leader of student ensembles.
