Stephan Micus

Born in Germany in 1953, Stephan Micus is a pioneering musician who has explored global musical traditions for decades. He has traveled to numerous countries, studying with local masters to learn traditional instruments, many of which are unfamiliar in the Western world. Micus does not play these instruments in the conventional way but instead creates new combinations and musical possibilities. His compositions often blend instruments from different cultures and include his own voice, which he uses to create transcultural, meditative soundscapes.
