A seasoned performer and teacher, guitarist Kathrin Murray, is a passionately committed performer with the ability to transparently present music as having a "life of its own" with "beautiful tone" (The Washington Guitar Society). Born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii, at 9 years old she was invited to join a professional ukulele ensemble called “The Super Keiki’s”. (“Keiki” is the Hawaiian word for child.) With this group, she performed frequently throughout the islands, and was often called upon to perform solos as well. At 15 years old she began playing the guitar, and has since become a dedicated performer and teacher based in Baltimore, MD.
Ms. Murray has performed in the United States and Europe, and has been featured as a guest artist at the Bethlehem Guitar Festival, the Charlton Kings International Guitar Festival (England), on the BBC, and at the Dutch and Finish Embassies in Washington, DC. Recent performances have taken her to Mendocino, CA, Bethlehem, PA, Fairfax, Virginia, Washington, DC, Honolulu, Hawaii, Portland and Brunswick, Maine and the Shenandoah Conservatory in Virginia. She has won the Rising Stars Recital Competition and has received the Levine Faculty Development Grant, the Peabody Career Development Grant, the Bowdoin Summer Music Festival's Perfoming Associate Award, and has been a three-time recipient of the Levine Performance Grant. Most recently, she received a 2008 Maryland State Arts Council Grant for her debut solo recording, “Arabesques”, which was released in Spring of 2008 on the Centaur Record Label.
Also a sought-after teacher, Ms. Murray has served on the guitar faculties of Frederick Community College, Towson University, Mount Saint Mary’s College, and the Levine School of Music. Currently she heads the classical guitar studies at McDaniel College in Westminster, MD and teaches at the Bryn Mawr School in Baltimore.
Ms. Murray received a bachelor’s degree from the Lamont School of Music of the University of Denver, where she was a scholarship student of the renowned guitarist and pedagogue, Ricardo Iznaola, and a Master’s Degree from the Peabody Conservatory of the Johns Hopkins University, where she studied with the equally revered Julian Gray. She has also studied at the Bowdoin Summer Music Festival and privately with composer Gilbert Biberian in England.
