More about me:

Jens Mügge grown up in Lower Saxony - Germany - in the Harz mountains near »Osterode am Harz«, an area with native rites - the best known is the celebration of Walpurgis night. At the age of twenty he left his hometown, lived in Bielefeld, Heidelberg and Göttingen to study comparative religion and philosophy for seven years, changed his career to work as an educator for handicapped persons and later as a Montessori pedagogue for little children. Now, because of his qualifications and talents he is able to guide persons with autism by the sound of his singing and guitar playing. He has a special qualification to teach children in music and rhythm. Even though Jens remained a musical illiterate. He can not sing at sight. But for him it is a kind of strength and freedom to do his improvisations in harmonic singing and playing overtone instruments. He listens to the tunes of a song and feels the music in his heart and his heart maybe knows hundreds of various tunes which are revealed in his playing of the jew's harp, his favorite instrument.
In his childhood he found a simple jew's harp and started to play traditional folk songs and melodies. At that early period he did not know that jew's harp playing is a kind of overtone music. Later he started to learn guitar and didgeridoo by himself. 2001 he was introduced in overtone singing, developed his style of overtone singing by himself and increased 2004 his knowledge of polyphonic harmonic singing by Wolfgang Saus. Even though he sings overtones only by his listening, he accompanies his overtone singing with guitar, Jew's harp, tambura, sansula, kalimba, springdrum, shrutibox, singing bowls and indian harmonium.
