Welcome to the fifth week of the ArtistWorks Summer Series! Every week this summer, we’ll be dropping new lessons, performances, study materials, and more from some of your favorite ArtistWorks teachers.
This week, we’re excited to debut nearly two dozen brand new online classical mandolin lessons from world-renowned mandolinist, professor at the Music Conservatory in Cologne, Germany, and ArtistWorks classical mandolin instructor, Caterina Lichtenberg.
Caterina’s new lessons cover material for players of all levels, and, among these lessons, is a brand new section specifically teaching Baroque Mandolin—making Caterina’s course the first of its kind and the only place to learn this unique instrument on the internet. Additionally, with these new lessons, Caterina’s course now features a total of over 27 hours of amazing video content.

Alongside Caterina’s video instruction, these lessons include brand new learning materials to supplement Caterina’s teaching, including tablature, notation, performance videos, and more. Furthermore, in addition to instruction on a variety of fresh techniques and concepts, Caterina also provides new lessons teaching 15 iconic classical compositions, including “From Old Vienna,” J.S Bach’s Prelude #1 from his 1st Cello Suite, Telemann’s Fantasia No. 1, Largo, and more.
If you’re a current student of Caterina’s, dive in now and enjoy learning these brand-new techniques and pieces. There’s never been a better time to roll up your sleeves and start playing…
