 GANDALF can be called a
"PAINTER OF MUSICAL LANDSCAPES", he is a composer, musician and producer of meanwhile numerous album releases. His name originated from
J.R.R.TOLKIEN´s cult-epic "THE LORD OF THE RINGS". GANDALF plays a great variety of instruments (acoustic and electric guitars, sitar, saz,
charango, bouzuki, balaphon, piano, synthesizers & sample-keyboards and various percussion) and blends acoustic with electronic and
spheric sounds, weaves folk-elements into symphonic structures, creating his unmistakable unique style that made him become one of today's
internationally most successful Austrian musicians.
The goal of this multi-sided musician is, to dissolve the boundaries between musical categories and styles and to create a cross-cultural
global music. On his journeys through Europe, North and South America and Asia he came in touch with most different cultures and found
out, that there are more things that unite than separate the folks on this planet.
With his compositions the sensitive artist points at other realities behind the colourful scenes of our
modern consume-society. His music encourages us to start searching for ourselves and to preserve a small piece of individuality in a
completely ruled and designed world.
