Sven „Svenson“ Kühbauch (born October 4, 1976 ) is a German guitarist, composer, author and instructor. He has released four studio albums in addition to collaborating with a variety of artists.
Education[edit]
Svenson, who studied at the Jazz and Rock School in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany – an official partner to the Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA, U.S.A. – he has attended master classes and workshops given by Scott Henderson, Greg Howe, Pat Metheny and Joe Diorio.[1]
Music career[edit]
After playing in all kind of bands, Svenson finished university and recorded his first solo album in 2007. He performed round the world (Bangkok, Beijing, Monte Video, Shanghai, Seoul, Stockholm) as well as the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival.[1] His main instrument is the Electric guitar, but on his albums, he plays also Acoustic guitar and Dobro. Svenson has shown his interest in environmental issues in his song „Agua del Mundo“. Inspired by the sea and alarmed by the problems associated with water, Svenson wanted to raise awareness and draw attention with that song.[2]
Svenson has recorded with Jennifer Batten (Michael Jackson), Jerry Donahue (Hellecasters), Rhani Krija (Sting) and Lulo Reinhardt.[3]
Guitar tuition[edit]
Svenson has since worked with Voggenreiter Verlag[4] and Gitarre & Bass Magazin, published transcriptions of different soundtracks and songs, including his own tracks of the "10th Anniversary Album". Since 2001, Svenson has taught at the Yamaha Music school in Marburg and the Music Academy Cologne. He formerly taught at the Beethoven Music School of Bonn and is invited to teach in workshops, masterclasses and clinics all around Europe. Svenson has published various books on guitar playing, regarded as seminal: His workshop e-books are available in three languages already and set a benchmark for multi-touch books teaching on how to learn an instrument.[5]
Compositions[edit]
His first album „Svenson“ shows in majority own titles, following publications mostly contained own compositions.[6] As a studio musician, Svenson played for diverse TV- and audio book productions.
