La Guitarra Georgiana

With "La Guitarra Georgiana," Georgian-born Kacha Metreveli presents new compositions for classical guitar. At their core, the compositions are rooted in traditional Georgian music and—thanks to their extensive arrangements—are well-suited for any concert program.

Kacha Metreveli, the talented composer and guitarist, was born in Tbilisi, Georgia, in 1969. After making his debut on Georgian radio and television in 1992, he successfully completed his final exams as a director and producer at the renowned Theater Academy in Tbilisi in 1995. His musical journey then took him to Münster, where he completed his studies as a concert guitarist and educator. Under the guidance of Prof. Reinbert Evers and Wolfgang Weigel, he honed his skills and gained valuable experience in numerous master classes with renowned guitarists such as Eliot Fisk, Costas Cotsiolis, and Shinichi Fukuda. At the age of 20, Kacha Metreveli had already begun composing and arranging his own works for the guitar. In addition to his concert performances and teaching work, he is now also dedicated to expanding the repertoire for guitarists of all ages. His talent and passion for music have been recognized with numerous awards, including first prize at the International Composition Competition in Rust (Austria, April 2019), third prize at the International Composition Competition held as part of the "Kindergitarrentage" in Saarland (Germany, Eppelborn, April 2020), and first prize at the International Composition Competition in Nordhorn (Euregio, April 2020).
