Like so many musical careers, also mine started with learning the great arts of playing the recorder, followed by a few years of piano-lessons. I attended the “Musisches Gymnasium Salzburg” (secondary school) and the BORG Akademiestraße – both schools specialized on music – where I acquired a good musical knowledge. As a teenager I listened to a lot of 60s and 70s rock music, which lead me to learning how to play the guitar and playing around with all of the other typical band-instruments.

Later I ended up as a bass-player and singer in a rock-coverband, where I was able to gain a lot of live-experience on various stages.

In my early twenties, I once again decided to learn a new instrument, which would then be the saxophone and a few years later I studied this wonderful instrument at Anton Bruckner university in Linz, Austria where I graduated in 2015.

At the same time a new group was formed, called “Blank Manuskript”, which – by this time – is a quite well known band in the Prog-community and gives me the opportunity to get to know so many wonderful people and places all over Europe. Whilst I started as the band’s saxophonist, my functions in this band varied throughout the years and resulted in me not only playing the sax but also the 2^nd guitar, the flute, various percussion instruments and more exotic instruments like the tzouras.

Later I also founded my own band called “Cage of Perception” which released it’s second album in March 2020. Unfortunately, this project is currently paused due to the covid19 pandemic.

I’ve always composed, played and produced music in different styles and as a result of the extensive covid-lockdowns in 2020 and the fact, that live-concerts had all been canceled, I decided to focus on this field and begin to study again. And currently I’m finishing ‚advanced film scoring and production‘ at musicube academy.
