Playing live concerts is one of my favourite aspects of creating music and an ongoing activity ever since I started my artistic career. I really enjoy the tension before a concert and the communication with the audience during the gig. Of course I also enjoy the communication and exchange with fellow musicians when performing together.
Over the years I have performed quite a few concerts from tiny to large venues and had the pleasure to perform at festivals in Austria and far beyond (Recycling the Future Vienna, Ars Electronica Linz, Coyne Performance Center, Syracuse (NY), Stuttgarter Filmwinter, Elektra Montreal, Forum Stadtpark Graz, Concertgebouw Brugge, Wiener Konzerthaus, Chelsea Art Museum (NY), Time Based Arts Hull, Essl Museum Klosterneuburg, Fluc Wien, Unsound Krakow, Steirischer Herbst Graz, Porgy & Bess Wien, Vondelbunker, Amsterdam, Interpenetration Graz, Reaktor Wien, Moers Festival a.o.).
Concerts and Performances took Place in many countries all over Europe, North America and Africa. (Austria, Germany, France, Belgium, UK, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Serbia, Poland, Romania, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, USA, Canada, South Africa).
I did many solo gigs but also had the pleasure to meet great artists on stage (and beyond) to perform in duos, trios, quartetts and larger groups of musicians (Kurt Bauer, Didi Bruckmayr, Rhys Chatham, Angelina Ertel, Karlheinz Essl, Klaus Filip, Michael Fischer, Clementine Gasser, Michaela Grill, Barbara Haider, Clemens Hausch, Rupert Huber, Melita Jurisic, Didi Kern, Johann Maurer, Karl Maier, Yves de May, Friedrich Neubarth, Maja Osojnik, Opcion, Bob Ostertag, Pablo Reche, Judith Reiter, Tom Sherman, Andrea Sodomka , Helmut Schäfer, Peter Szely, Roberto Paci Dalo, Joao Castro Pinto, Keiko Uenishi (aka O.Blaat), Vienna Improvisers Orchestra, Reni Weichselbaum, Mia Zabelka a.o.).
