Lessons/Workshops:
In January of 2016 Caterina was signed to the Artist Works online teaching school as the Classical mandolin teacher.
Caterina Lichtenberg has taken everything she knows about classical mandolin and created a comprehensive video library that includes hundreds of online lessons.
Members have unlimited access to all the lessons which are supplemented by backing tracks and other study materials. Plus there are special guests, exclusive interviews, and a community of classical mandolin enthusiasts from all over the world.
What ultimately sets these lessons apart from other online offerings however, is the ability to submit a video using the ArtistWorks Video Exchange® learning platform. Caterina reviews each submission and records a video response with feedback on how you’re doing and tips for how to improve. All students can access the Video Exchange library, which is always expanding and may contain the key to unlock your own playing. - Instruction: http://artistworks.com/classical-mandolin-lessons-caterina-lichtenberg
