Biography

Born 1960 in Vienna. Austrian composer, improviser and performer. He studied composition with Friedrich Cerha and musicology in Vienna (doctorate 1989 with a thesis on Anton Webern). As a double bassist, he played in chamber and experimental jazz ensembles.

In 1997, he was presented at the Salzburg Festival with portrait concerts and sound installations. He teaches „Computer Aided Composition“ at the „Studio for Advanced Music & Media Technology“ of the Bruckner University, Linz.
