Tierra Negra, Germany's most successful guitar duo, is on the forefront of Flamenco Nuevo music. Since their discovery in 1997 in Montréal, Canada, and the record contract that followed, they have produced a total of six CDs. Their compositions are featured on countless international guitar compilations. Numerous concert tours brought them all over Europe and Canada and this marks their first US Tour. Even Hollywood used their music for the movie The Perfume.
Raughi Ebert and Leo Henrichs bring together their musical souls in Tierra Negra - while maintaining the thread to the Rumba-Flamenco tradition of the Camargue and Spain, they incorporate a unique combination of international and pop elements into their music. There is persuasiveness in the melody - an infectious groove and genuine passion in Tierra Negra's music. A Tierra Negra live concert is a joyous, passionate and transforming experience - truly not to be missed.
Muriel Anderson's audiences experience a world of music in each concert - international, folk, classical, jazz, Beatles, bluegrass, and perhaps a Sousa march, played nylon string, steel string and harp guitar. Muriel was the first woman to win the National Fingerpicking Guitar Championship and was also awarded a bronze level for classical in the 2009 Acoustic Guitar Magazine's Players Choice poll. She has been composing since the age of six and has published works for guitar and orchestra, voice, and solo guitar. Muriel has published several instructional books and videos and tours extensively. She is also the founder and director of Music for Life Alliance charity.
