After her\u00a0debut in the Berlin Philharmonic, she has been invited to the Bohuslav Martinu International\u00a0Music Festival in Basel, the\u00a0Davos Festival (Switzerland), the Konzerthaus Berlin, the Gro\u00dfes Festspielhaus Salzburg (Austria), the Teatro Nacional Lisbon (Portugal) and the Palace of Arts Budapest (Hungary). She has given concerts in Poland, the Czech Republic, Luxembourg, Sweden, Finland, Great\u00a0Britain, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Japan, Mexico, Portugal, Hungary, Pakistan, Turkey and the United States.<\/p>\n
Besides her engagements in the area of classical and contemporary music, Carolina loves improvising and composing. She was winner of the International Competition\u00a0for Composers arranged by Radio\/TV Berlin-Brandenburg in 2006. Together with her duo partner, the jazz guitarist Vinzenz Wieg, she keeps on discovering new soundscapes and unconventional methods of play. For Carolina, music and painting belong together as she is not thinking in tunes, but in colours when improvising. She puts these colours down on paper whenever she can.<\/p>\n
Carolina takes as her task to pass on her knowledge of playing the theremin. To aim that, she published the first extensive theremin method book entitled \u201cThe Art of Playing the Theremin\u201d, and has since\u00a0conducted workshops, lectures and master classes worldwide. Since 2010 she is the artistic director of the\u00a0Theremin Summer Academy<\/i>\u00a0in Colmar, France.
