About me:

I am working as an overtonesinger since 1991 and learned singing overtones from 1990 to 1992. My teachers were Siegfried Eberlein, Reinhard Schimmelpfeng and Sangit Waldner. I had my first appearance as an overtonesinger in Germany at the "Musicum"-jazzfestival in Brunswick, founded the bands "Pangaea" and "Project Pan", performed on several occasions, for instance the "Masala Weltbeat-Festival" Hannover and on German television 1995. 2004 the singer and guitarplayer Philip Heinemeyer, the Bodhran-player Niall McQuaid and me founded the Band "Aurora Borealis". But she just existed for one concert (january the 24th 2004 at Camphill Community, Ballytoban), because my attempt to settle in Ireland failed. Since 1999 I sing solo and also perform within Europe, for instance on the "Spirit of Voice"-Festival in Galway/Ireland.

Instruments:

Overtone Singing, Shrutibox, Harmonium, Khomus (Tuvinian jew's harp), Didgeridoo, Singing-bowls

Influences:

Various Tuvinian overtonesingers, Huun-Huur-Tu, Yat-Kha, Oleg Kuular, Sangit Waldner, traditional Irish and Scottish Folk.
