Johannes' unique abilities and musical
interpretations are purely intuitive; i.e. based on emotional perceptions, rather than technicalities or robotics.
Background
and Experience
In 1988, Johannes discovered and developed his talent of whistling to classical and/or popular music.
He also discovered, but not yet developed (for reasons of priority), his latent potential as a composer. His repertoire comprises
about twenty-eight hours, stretching from classical composers, such as tunes from Suppe, Rossini, Mozart, Brahms and Schuhmann
to contemporary musical works and interpretations by musicians, such as Liberace, Cleyderman, Wunderlich, Bota, Piacentino
etc.
Johannes' repertoire even includes traditional ethnic music, such as Italian, Spanish, Vietnamese, Arabic, Russian
gypsy tunes and may be extended to suit your specific requirements.
Credentials & Affiliations
In 1988,
Johannes was awarded the first prize at a musicians' contest by the late conductor of Sydney's Symphony Orchestra Stuart Challender
and in 1990, shortly after his return from two performances in New York at the Joe Franklin Show, he received two letters
from the actor Paul Newman and a letter from the late German organist Klaus Wunderlich (copies available on demand). In
2ooo, Johannes performed with Prof. Gerhard Erber, pianist of the "Gewandhaus Orchestra, Leipzig" (Please

During the last decade, he performed on numerous occasions
in public, clubs, Radio/TV Shows and his talent of whistling to music has been recorded in several movies, such as 'Walk The
Talk' and 'The Green Apple' (NY), commercials and exposures in Australia, USA, Switzerland, Iceland, Vietnam, Greece, Japan,
Chile and Germany.
