The Great Kat High Priestess Of Guitar Shred (http://www.greatkat.com ) started shredding on guitar after graduating from The Juilliard School as a violin virtuoso. After hearing Ozzy and Judas Priest, I decided to mix vicious, speed metal guitar riffs with my Classical Motives to UPDATE Classical Music Masterpieces from BEETHOVEN, MOZART, WAGNER, etc. and bring this POWERFUL music to the WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What actually makes a guitarist unique? Feeling or technique? Many people for example cannot stand Satriani...who is absolutely a master when it comes to technique!

VIRTUOSITY makes a GUITARIST unique!!! That's why The Great Kat Guitar Shredder is the ONLY GUITAR AND VIOLIN VIRTUOSO since Niccolo Paganini!!!!! The MOST important thing is to be TECHNICAL and have VICIOUS, BRUTAL POWER!

NOW CHECK OUT THE TECHNICAL GENIUS on my NEW "BEETHOVEN'S GUITAR SHRED" DVD:

"Beethoven's Guitar Shred" features The Great Kat's guitar shredding on Classical masterpieces:

• Beethoven's "5^th Symphony"
• "The Flight Of The Bumble-Bee"
• Paganini's "Caprice #24"
• Bach's "Brandenburg Concerto #3"
• Along with original theatrical speed metal Wagnerian style music videos
• Plus Great Kat SHRED BONUS FEATURES & KAT KARTOON - a crazy cartoon of The High priestess of Guitar Shred!!!

What kind of equipment do you use? Guitars...pick ups...amps...? Do you use different equipment in the studio and different while playing live? If yes then what is the reason?

For RECORDING and LIVE SHRED SHOWS, The Great Kat SHREDS on numerous guitars, amps and effects.  CHECK OUT THE GREAT KAT LIVE TO SEE FOR YOURSELVES!!!!!!

Construct the guitar of your dreams...brand, pick ups, strings..everything!

The Great Kat QUEEN of SHRED GUITAR, can PERFORM BLISTERING GUITAR SOLOS on ANY guitar. I prefer a LIGHTWEIGHT, THIN-NECKED GUITAR to SHRED AT HIGH SPEEDS!!!!!!!!!!

Are you participating in the composing of your bands material or you're just a performer? How important is it for an artist to be able to express himself? I mean, if for example you were in a band only for performing someone else's musical themes...would you handle it not participating...not being able to express yourself?

The Great Kat is the COMPOSER, ARRANGER, ORCHESTRATOR of all my SHRED/CLASSICAL WORKS and the COMPOSER/WRITER of ALL MY ORIGINAL WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

REVIEWS OF THE GREAT KAT:

-"The Great Kat should be feared because her hyper-blasting, neo-classical, whirlwind guitar playing is so precise and intense. This woman really is a better guitarist than most men ever were. Beethoven's Guitar Shred DVD is a portable clinic of seemingly inhuman guitar antics.  Dominating torture, blood, fire, anti-terrorist sentiments - all wrapped in an oddly tasteful, hyper-classical visual feast." - Mark Morton, Heavy Metal Examiner

-"The Great Kat named one of the fastest guitar players. Probably the fastest female shredder on the face of the earth. 'Flight Of The Bumble-Bee' at 300 Beats Per Minute. It does not get any faster than that. This ('Beethoven's Guitar Shred' DVD) makes a great stocking stuffer." - Michael Butler, MEVIO Music 

-"Heavy Metal Beethoven. Ya gotta see (and hear) this one to believe it. It's a guitar shred. A really really fast guitar shred.  Beethoven's Guitar Shred is a DVD featuring The Great Kat, a classical violin wunderkind turned metal guitar shred virtuoso. Like I said, watch and listen for yourself." - Dave White, About.com: Classic Rock 

-"The Great Kat hardcore metal musician with some serious shred, I'm talkin bloody fingers fast dudes. She takes classic tunes and mixes it up with some metal and produces one unique, fast-paced sound. There's nothing like seeing a woman spread wide with a guitar between her legs. If you're a fan of heavy metal then definitely take The Great Kat's Beethoven's Guitar Shred for a spin; it's a unique spin on classic hits that's sure to please. It's been Valkor tested and TOV Approved." - Valkor, The Other View
