Charlotte Kaiser

Charlotte Kaiser (*1996) explores emotional transparency and radical honesty through the mandolin and mandola. In interdisciplinary concert, installation, and performance formats, she delves into the depths of human existence. The mandolinist performs nationally and internationally in a variety of ensembles - navigating the space between symphony concerts and intimate one-on-one formats, from the Elbphilharmonie to theater ship.

She received significant artistic inspiration from her studies at the Hochschule für Musik Saar with Juan Carlos Muñoz and at the Conservatoire Royal de Liège (Belgium) with Vincent Beer-Demander, as well as through the TONALi Stage Academy in Hamburg, masterclasses with artists such as Avi Avital and Dietmar Wiesner, and performances at festivals including the Beethovenfest Bonn and the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival.

As a mandolinist, she has performed with the Deutsche Radio Philharmonie, the Orchestre de Chambre du Luxembourg and at Theater Koblenz in opera and orchestral productions such as Don Giovanni (Mozart), Die tote Stadt (Korngold), Ligeti’s Mysteries of the Macabre, and Mahler’s 7th Symphony. She is a prizewinner of international competitions and has received numerous scholarships, including from Yehudi Menuhin Live Music Now Saar e.V.
