Gariffuna

Overtone singing, bitonal tuning of the acoustic guitar with tablas and sitar
With Professor Jim Downey Harris (USA) he learned the bitonal tuning of the acoustic guitar for playing together with tablas and sitar. Through intensive engagement with this style, he came closer to oriental singing techniques, for which he has great respect and admiration. Learning overtone singing, using techniques from Mongolia, Tuva and Tibet, in which he invested many years of practice, in combination with African singing techniques from New Guinea and Tanzania formed the foundation for the development of his own teaching concept. This knowledge is implemented in his solo project “Mystic Blue Bird”.
Based in Zurich, Switzerland, he founded the Skyvoices Institut singing school in 2002. He teaches at various institutions and music schools and conducts seminars and workshops on voice training, verbal communication and overtone singing in Europe and Mexico.

He is currently working on his new album “Volando Rumba - Ave Solar” and his solo project “Mystic Blue Bird”.
