Peter Kater

Peter Kater is a German-born American composer, songwriter-singer, and pianist. Kater is an eleven-time Grammy award nominee.[1] He has spent the majority of his professional life living in Boulder, Colorado.

He collaborated with R. Carlos Nakai in 1992 for the album Migration (released Silver Wave Records, January 1, 1992). His social contributions are virtually unparalleled, having brought greater awareness to the environment and the plight of Native Americans. This helped bring him the prestigious Environmental Leadership Award from the United Nations. He has also inspired a broad number of aspiring young musicians throughout his life (see Koto Jazz).

Inner Passion, his 2016 collaboration with cellist Tina Guo for Hearts of Space Records, debuted at number four on the Billboard New Age Albums chart.[2]
