About Me

It all started...
with a tiny little xylophone with only one octave... that was at the age of three... Meanwhile I play the harp, key fiddle and accordion which give a bit more possibilities. I am member of the band "Triskilian", apart from that I like to participate in some friends' studio projects or make plans what to commit next. In general, I am very interested in Early Music, medieval and folklore from all over Europe, world music and every kind of freedom-loving, creative an inspiring sounds.
