It is with great pleasure and thrilling enthusiasm that RMN Classical announces the release of the classic guitar revisitation and adaptation of Claude Debussy’s masterpiece “Clair De Lune” performed by the talented Christina Sandsengen.

Her beautiful, light and dreamy sound “… turns emphatic, fragile, bold, tender and wild…” – Gramophone Magazine.

Born in Norway in 1987, from the age of 16, Christina studied with world-renowned musicians and performers among with Martin Haug, Geir Otto Nilsson, Erik Stenstadvold, Gerard Abiton, Eliot Fisk, Fabio Zanon, and Aniello Desiderio, to name but a few.

During her career, she played in many festivals and venues in Britain, Turkey, Sweden, Norway, Bolivia, Peru, Chile, Venezuela, Spain, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and China, receiving outstanding reviews for her many solo concerts.

Christina Sandsengen plays a wide range of repertoire, with a particular focus on Romantic music. Over the past years, she has worked with international guitarists such as Xuefei Yang, Carlo Domeniconi, and Anders Clemens Øien.

In the fall of 2014, Christina released her debut album, Shades & Contrasts’, on Odradek Records, and the album has received widespread critical acclaim:

“Sandsengen’s debut album showcasing a rare virtuosity and astoundingly multi-faceted talent”  - The Times

“…debut collection showcasing skill and no small virtuosity” - The Independent

“…masterly sense of tonal and rhythmic hierarchy” - Gramophone Magazine

Among others, the Arts Desk declared that: “Norwegian guitarist Christina Sandsengen’s technique is flawless, and hearing her left hand nimbly skate up and down the fingerboard serves only to increase one’s admiration”, while Crescendo reported that Christina Sandsengen “… demonstrates brilliantly and with crystal clarity where things are headed for her: to enthuse a young and broader audience with the ‘most popular instrument in the world’…”

Endorsements include Stephan Connor guitar, and is endorsed by G7th capos

The forthcoming release is expected to hit all the digital outlet and platform Friday November 30th, 2018 on RMN Classical.
