Mystery school of music
The mystery school of music is a living vision of practising and sharing music as a tool for healing and transformation that step by step unfolds.
During the last 15 years of performing and teaching healing music, guiding workshops and retreats I realized that what I love the most is to share and teach the mystery of music, the secrets it reveals and its incredible potential for spiritual growth.
I received the initial inspiration for the mystery school on a pilgrimage to Mt. Sinai and since then keep nourishing that vision and dream. Since about 2 years I am working on the program of the school that will be offered the first time in 2010. The most important on that path of course is to experience the mystery myself and live a healing way every day as well as being rooted in a strong own daily practise. I am very thankful that I can arrange my life in a way that there is time for retreats and nature, sitting at the fire and dreaming in the woods and not being entirely caught up by the general speed of this time. I feel as a world citizen and also part of a collective process and what’s happening to mother earth and humanity and want to share my gift and serve the process of spiritual awakening of mankind.
The mystery school of music is a way of sharing truth, simplicity and love and learn the fundamental principals of harmony as a basic law of life and creation. We need to gather in the sacred space of music and give our spirit and song for healing and peace, create a vibration of universal harmony and tune into the consciousness and challenge of the new millennium. May all beings be happy, nourished and fulfilled!

- Aim transformation, self- realization and healing
- Develop an attitude of giving, serving and sharing
- Respect nature, tradition and ancient wisdom

- Celebrate music as the religion of the heart
Thank you to all my teachers on the way, all the friends and strangers that inspired me, the yogis and saints of humanity, the children of light, the Rainbow family, the angels and celestial beings guiding us, the spirits of nature and the forest, the pure rivers of inspiration and love.
Most gratitude and respect to Sufi master Hazrat Inayat Khan, who opened the doors for my own healing music path.
"What we call music in our everyday language is only a miniature, which our intelligence has grasped from that music or harmony of the whole universe which is working behind everything and which is the source and origin of nature. Among all aspects of knowledge the knowledge of sound is supreme,and the mastery of sound helps man to rise to the formless. This knowledge acts as wings for man, it helps him to rise from earth to heaven.”
Hazrat Inayat Khan
