Sound Spectrum 

The special and beautiful thing about the Indian sound world is that it is perceived as a wholistic experience. Our body, which consists of 70–80% water, serves as our strongest and most familiar resonance chamber. It receives vibrations, resonates with them, and transmits them back into the world. Therefore, this sound world can be experienced without any prior musical knowledge and is thus accessible to people of all ages, even the Unborn. With my unique experience and deep understanding as a microtonal singer along the natural scale, I invite you to join me in exploring the captivating world of sounds and microtones—an experience that will touch you on a deeply personal level.

The offerings from the Sound Spectrum provide wholistic, harmonizing opportunities for resonance across all age groups, even the Unborn. They include mindful sound encounters and experiences in a safe and protected space, in the quiet of small groups or through individual sessions. Whether gently receptive or interactively designed, all sessions are wholistically oriented and accompanied by sound. These experiences offer ways to discover and expand the natural sound of your voice in a respectful, non-judgmental, and expectation-free way… to consciously perceive the vibrations of different voice production… to immerse yourself in the powerful sound of your own voice… to heighten your awareness of microtones… to better appreciate the subtle nuances of sound… to refine your hearing for delicate shades of microtones… or simply to be carried away by the mysterious sounds of the Tanpura (stringed instrument) and accompanying microtonal syllabic singing.

Detached from words and verbal language, one’s own voice, especially when singing and sounding, can make the spirit sound and also be experienced as a spiritual level of expression, communication and perception […for the sake of becoming…]. In the Indian context, it is therefore considered the highest form of music. Thus, music also opens up possibilities for self-awareness. Overcome the black and white keys, resonate with the sounds and micro sounds in their natural intervals and tune yourself. Tap into the power of your natural voice (or your instrument) and experience music also as…

…self-realization…
…self-awareness…self-experience,
…self-overcoming…self-expression,
… self-encounter…self-knowledge,
… self-healing…self-liberation,
…self-fulfillment…

With the mysterious sounds of the Tanpura, one attunes oneself while singing with the own voice (or instrument), bringing both oneself and the surroundings into resonance and `colouring´ the mind with the sound colours. Some sessions are accompanied by breathing exercises from yoga (prāṇāyāma).

The accompaniment of the Tanpura gives my offerings a unique and distinctive character. Its enchanting vibrations are both my musical guide and the core sonic foundation woven into each of my offers. The natural harmonic series (pure intervals) unfolds from its mysterious ocean of overtone-rich vibrations – a silent awakening from the depths of sound. The delicate sounds of the Tanpura can sensitize the musical ear. Through regular meditative merging with its multidimensional sound spectrum, the `inner ear´ can open up to the perception of the omnipresent sound of anahat Nāda. 

Special parent-child offerings and Sound Journeys nurture moments of gentle togetherness, where wholistic connection can unfold and families feel warmly supported along their journey.

Inspired by the creative improvisational mastery of my Gurus, I draw from the rich spectrum of improvisational techniques from Indian Raag Music to create individual designs for syllable singing. Each Sound Journey unfolds melodically and intuitively, tailored to the participants, the hour, and the spirit of the moment.
