The internationally recognized guitarists Christian Wernicke and Christian Kütemeier founded Duo Orfeo in 2004 after having won the Deutsche Musikwettbewerb, which is Germany’s most important competition for young musicians. Following their win, they have given many concerts and have been enthusiastically received by public and press alike. On the invitation of the German Foreign Office, they appeared as German cultural ambassadors at the International Cultural Festival in Asilah, Morocco. Shortly thereafter, the Goethe Institute sent them to Chile for a concert tour. Their performances have swiftly established them in the top rank of German guitar duos.
