Matthias Liesenhoff

Musician and Engineer – a rare combination but a good one, because one complements the other. In music and rhythm, clear structure and comprehensible explanation can be helpful, as in business the ability to deal with uncertainty in a relaxed and improvising manner.

Since early childhood I am making music, with voice and drums always being equally important to me. As a drummer I have experience from diverse styles such as Big Band, Heavy Rock, Funk, Afro-Cuban, Taiko. As a singer I am more into classical European music, from vocal quartets of the Renaissance to sumptuous romantic works for choir and orchestra, to dodecaphony and contemporary a-capella, but also Circle Singing and traditional Georgian Chant.

Educated in Alexander Technique, Living in a Body™ Practicioner, also drawing on experience in Tango Argentino, Qi Gong, Yin Yoga, EponaQuest, and Christian spirituality via the Anthoposophy of Rudolf Steiner.

Leading TaKeTiNa rhythm journeys I am pleased to create a field by voice and percussion in which every participant has a chance to discover and deepen their rhythmic being.
