We’ve been enjoying the debut CD by a young German guitarist named Katrin Endrikat called Between the Worlds, which arrived in CG‘s offices not too long ago. Originally from Berlin, Endrikat has studied in both Europe and the U.S. with a number of distinguished teachers (including Dale Kavanagh, Eli Kassner, Benjamin Verdery, and Thomas Kirschoff) and performed extensively as both a soloist and chamber musician. The CD features works by J.S. Bach, Isaac Albeniz, Lennox Berkeley, Alexandre Tansman, and the composer of this piece—the oft-recorded “La Catedral” by Agustin Barrios. The performance was captured in the wonderful atrium space of Berlin’s Lichthof Technical University in January 2014.
