Background and Experience
In 1988, Johannes discovered and developed his unique style 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 more than twenty-eight
hours, stretching from classical composers, such as tunes from Suppe, Rossini, Mozart, Brahms and Schumann 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. The late conductor of the Sydney Symphonic Orchestra granted
Johannes infinite permission to perform to tourists at the Sydney Opera House.
Credentials & Affiliations
In 1988, Johannes was awarded the first prize at the "Mostly Mozart" musician's contest by the late conductor
of Sydney's Symphony Orchestra Stuart Challender and in 1990, shortly after his return from two performances in NY/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. In 2ooo, Johannes performed with world renown concert pianist Prof. Gerhard Erber in Leipzig/ Germany. - In 2014,
Johannes was awarded the "Global Commendation for Outstanding Contribution to Artwhistling" (OCTA), in which the
judges were greatly impressed by Johannes's emotional, musical creativity.

During many years of public performances at the famous Sydney Opera House Johannes attracted and motivated lots of young people
from all over the world, eager discover their own unique abilities and talents. - Thanks to his own philosophical development
Johannes was able to convey his philosophical advice and they in turn encouraged Johannes to detail his insight in writing.
The initial problem was, that Johannes never wrote a book in English language, yet finally, after some practice he managed
to write his first book, titled: 'A Guide To Personal Contentment'. It is now available (at www.lulu.com). Please enter the
book's title into Lulu's search box and then peruse its ten page Preview.
Breaking News...
At this very moment Johannes is busy writing a couple more philosophical books/ guides, titled "Grandpa's Insight";
a practical self-tutor for young people, who thus far, only enjoyed philosophical guidance from their peers, from googling
the Internet, rock music lyrics etc. and miss or resent the philosophical guidance of their parents and grandparents.
