Cathe Sobke: Cathe Sobke is a San Diego native. She holds degrees in music composition and music theory from SDSU. She grew up playing piano, clarinet, and guitar, and was introduced to Early Music about 20 years ago. Her collection of early musical instruments includes many recorders, Renaissance flutes, krummhorns, cornettos, lutes, Baroque guitar, viola da gamba, and harpsichord. When she isn’t playing on her instruments (or playing tennis, hiking or cycling), she can be found teaching music classes at Southwestern College where she specializes in Aural Skills. She also is available for private musical instruction. Currently performing music from the Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque periods, she plays with local groups Kensington Baroque Orchestra, Dolce Dolore, Granada Consort, Musica Nova Antiqua, The Goliards, and Duo Lonato. Cathe has previously been a guest conductor of the SDCRS many times, and she always chooses a program of various music periods and composers that are enjoyable to play, listen to, and learn from. In some cases she provides her own arrangements of music from other composers. See Cathe Sobke performing with the Kensington Baroque Orchestra at https://youtu.be/oTknvX_bEXk.
