Life and career

Catya Maré was born in Neuss, Germany, into a family of professional classical musicians. She performed her first concert as a soloist with a symphony orchestra being only 10 years old. While a young adult she played solo concerts as a classical violinist in the United States, Israel, Scandinavia, Europe and at many festivals including Schleswig-Holstein Musikfestival and Santander Music Festival. She has received her master's degree at the Munich Music Conservatory and held the position of an alternating concertmaster with the Scandinavian symphony orchestra Aarhus Symfoniorkester.

In 2005, she became aware of her capability to improvise on her violin. During the following year, she did solo violin improv performances at the National Gallery, Berlin (Germany) and Kunsthaus Zürich (Switzerland). She left the orchestra in 2006 to create / perform her own music (Electronic / Pop / World / Celtic new age / Classical crossover).

In 2008, Maré relocated to the United States. She released five CDs, Light Longing, which was the result of a collaboration with the Danish music producers Jakob Gadegaard and Henrik Koitzsch, Remembering The Day, Destination Love, Tell Me Why... and Talk Talk Talk, which she composed, recorded and produced herself.

Her music is featured on motion picture Butterflies In The Wind,[3] which premiered at the 2007 Ava Gardner Film Festival in North Carolina.
