About me:
Jens Mügge sang as a child in various choirs. He started to play traditional folk songs and melodies on the jaw harp. At that early period he did not know that jew's harp playing is a kind of overtone music. Additionally he began to learn didgeridoo and was introduced to overtone singing 2001, developed his style of overtone singing on his own, and increased his knowledge of polyphonic harmonic singing by Wolfgang Saus in 2004. Now he accompanies his overtone singing with guitar, Jew's harp, tambura, sansula, kalimba, springdrum, singing bowls and various shrutiboxes.
Instruments:
Jew's harp, Guitar, Didgeridoo, Shrutibox, Singing Bowls, Jaw Harp, Maultrommel, Khomus, Voice

    Hi Jens,
    Thanks for your 'Welcome email' & offer of technical support.... I'd be very grateful if you could correct my Homepage info on my membership page as the link isn't working now.
    I listed my 2 web sites www.sarahhopkins.com & www.harmonicwhirlies.com . Unfortunately these have been strung together & therefore neither work. If only one website can be listed, please list www.sarahhopkins.com
    Jens, I hope that you can assist me with this.... Please let me know.
    Thanks ! All good wishes, Sarah Hopkins

    Hi Jens,
    wie geht es?
    Ich habe gerade eher zufällig deinen kommentar über die DVD auf german space gesehen und es entsprechend kommentiert. Wenn du den bundle schon zugeschickt bekommen hast - von Traumzeit, dann wirst du nochmal die verbesserte DVD nachträglich bekommen. Auf der jetzigen DVD5 ist die kompression zu stark und man sieht einen haufen lienien und artefakte.
    Ich hatte eh vor dir eine Exemplar zu schicken sobald die "endgültige" draussen ist. Aber die letzte woche hatte ich eher einen heissen Kopf und damit beschäftig das Feuer zu löschen. Die Odysee ist noch nicht vorbei...
    Nun ja, ich hoffe dir hat die doku gefallen, auch wenn die qualität miese war.
    Die Workshop DVD von Wolfgang ist ok.

    Also liebe Grüsse & du wirst von mir hören, wenn die verbesserte DVD fertig ist.
    schick mir doch mal bitte deine postadresse an info@ming-art.net

    Liebe Grüsse!
    Ming

  • Dean Frenkel

    Thank you for letting me know of Hosoo's fantastic performance. He did aboslutely brilliantly. Though I did not understand any of the German dialogue I wonder why did they keep morphing his face into a western face? Apart from that his was a monumental performance. Best, Dean
  • Dean Frenkel

    Thanks Jens. Hosoo's performance under pressure was tremendous and his sygyt - impressive. I consider what he did to be a very important representation of our art to a wider audience. Thanks again for bring it to my attention.

    Best, Dean

    Hi Jens,

    Unfortunately no web link for the festival yet. But I can tell you that the dates are July 2-4, in Kecscemet, Hungary. Aron Szilagy is organizing. I hope you can join us!

    I would also love to hear more about your travels with Hosoo (is he on tour?) and the David Hykes retreat. Sounds like a great summer!

    Hi Jens,
    I'm not too bothered by the messages I receive from OMN, I don't get that many.
    By the way, I'm currently working on another CD with overtone music, to be released in a few weeks time. I'll post a message when it's out.
    Best, Bernard

    Heyah Jens, doing my Cheshire Cat thing as usual, just discovered your query 'did i mean coral castle?' and the answer is yep, that's the one. In the Wairarapa region of the north island of new zealand at a place called Carterton a bunch of astronomers built a functional henge, modelled on stonehenge but aligned for the southern stars, and made the discovery that the henge has remarkable accoustic properties. Inside the henge they now regularly have music performances. When i visited it i noticed that when the asronomers were giving lectures you could hear them clearly but not hear them outside the henge. Likewise sounds outside the henge seemed to have trouble penetrating it. Trust all is great for you my friend. Watched the Weeping Camel' last night, such a beautiful film. Cheers :D

    Tibetan Mantra chanting

    In Tibetans monasteries Gyuto and Gyume, Singing Tantras and mantras use of throat singing. Their tradition goes back to a group of Indian masters, the most notable being the yogin Padmasambhava, Who visited the Tibet to VIIIecentury and, more recently, the founder of one of the four streams of Tibetan Buddhism Tsongkapa (1357-1419) who had brought on overtone singing and the style of meditation. He had said it, this type of song from his patron deity, Maha Bhairava who, despite being an incarnation of Bodhisattva compassion (Avalokiteshvara) Had a terrific mind. The central face of Maha Bhairava is an angry buffalo. Even today, the masters of this school compare their singing like the bellowing of a bull.

    There are several ways to recite the prayers: the recitation in a lower register with moderate or fast speed on sacred texts, singing with three styles (ta sung with words spoken clearly on a pentatonic scale; gur with a slow tempo used in ceremonies and principal during processions; yang with a very serious voice on vowels producing harmonic effect to communicate with the gods). The Tibetan monks of Gyuto monastery out a bumblebee extremely serious and a harmonic H10 corresponding to the major third above the 3rd octave drone, while the monks of the monastery Gyume produce a drone and serious harmonic equivalent of 12 straight at - above the 3rd octave drone. They say the Gyuto monks chant represents the Fire element and the monks Gyume expresses the element Water. These monks get this effect harmonic singing the vowel O with the mouth elongated and rounded lips.
