About the Artist
Michael Kollwitz has been playing The Chapman Stick(R)* since 1976 and is considered one of the world's top Stick players. One of inventor Emmett Chapman's first music students, he has performed extensively throughout the Southwestern US. He has been featured in various media including TV and "All Things Considered" on PBS. His CDs have received acclaim from far and wide. He has opened, as a solo, for The Beach Boys and was offered a full-time job playing The Stick at Disneyland. He has performed at dozens of five-star resorts and in-concert for thousands at all types of festivals and corporate events. He currently resides in the Sacramento, California area. {The Chapman Stick is easily the most radical innovation in stringed instruments since the invention of the electric guitar. Conceived in the mid 70's by inventor Emmett Chapman of Los Angeles, The Stick is played with two hands; simultaneously playing BOTH bass and melody parts independently- by tapping and holding strings to frets (rather than by pluck or strum) The Stick incorporates the essence of guitar, bass, keyboards and drums- all into one instrument! With these unique capabilities, The Stick can sound like 2 or 3 musicians at once in the hands of a talented player like Michael Kollwitz.
