SoundWitch Project

Once founded with chapman stick player Hans Hartmann († 2022), it became a solo project initiated by myself, in which I composed and produced pieces on my own. However, to realize the music in studios and on live stages i have collaborated with numerous musicians from all over the world who have special influences and modern tendencies from their home countries. While performing we were trying to create mixtures of sounds that have never been heard before. 

„..their music is characterized by understanding of the fluid transitions between Western and Eastern musical traditions, by playing across the boundaries of different genres…“ (Werkstatt der Kulturen, 2013)

„…what comes out of this is difficult to sum up: a very unique, constantly changing sound that doesn’t accept any limits. Whether there are two, four or eight people, the music is at its best“  (Anja Gallenkamp, Jazz historian)

LaNaNa

LaNaNa is a band consisting of a guitar teacher and his 2 ex-students from a Berlin high school.

Starting out as the school band focusing on blues rock, it became a band for their life and since then they have been writing and performing music with their unique style.

The Education Project : Come N Strum!“ 

„.Be a lady, be a gentleman, but ROCK with No contROLL..!“

Over 20 years, as freelance music educator i have been giving guitar lessons, band coaching and music theory/song writing courses. I am also helping my students making their demo-recording and organizing live concerts.

Be it beginner or advanced, i give my best attention on „know your student“ : differentiated instruction is the process of tailoring lessons to meet each student’s individual interests, needs, and strengths. Teaching this way gives students choice and flexibility in how they learn, and helps them to maintain their uniqueness.

The place of courses is located in Berlin/Zehlendorf (PLZ 14195). To take part please contact me.
