I am a 2nd generation overtone singer. I started exploring overtones in 1979, and gave my first concert in New York City in 1984.
My approach is a fine balance between science and intuition. As a trained musician, I have developed a unique style of rendering the overtones.
I hold a 1st Class Honours Degree from Trinity Laban Music Conservatoire (London), in Indian Classical Music Performance.
I have a real passion for blending overtones with other music traditions, such as Indian Classical singing, Jazz and Gregorian chant, and always welcome the chance to collaborate with other musicians.
I am also director of creativity & innovation for the business consultancy Abundant Sun Ltd. Within this capacity, I apply my artistic skills to the areas of stress management, team development and work-life balance.
As a band we are:
Unstructured Light - a multidisciplinary metaphysical theatre group.
The Super String Trio - Mark van Tongeren and me.
Instruments:
Voice, tambura, and a bit of piano.
Influences:
Globally eclectic. Jazz. Classical Indian Music. Ancient Polyphony. Gregorian Chant. Barbershop Quartet.
I sing with "MuOM, Barcelona Overtone Singing Choir" & we visit London & Wales at the end of this month! It'd be a genuine blessing for the group if you are able to attend an event or share the info with some of your contacts, if you feel inspired to do so.
Thank you & enjoy your week! Moises

Hello Rollin,
that's great to find you here. Do you remember our first contact back in the 90th? I got your brilliant book on overtone singing in dutch language in those times. A book that gave me a lot of inspiration. Hope we get more in contact now.
