About me:
I am Dieter Wienand, living near Cologne, born in 1959, January 3 rd in Siegen/Germany, musician and mystical. I´m inviting everyone to sing and to express himself in his voice, because voice is a mirror of ourselves. As a young man I studied Christian protestant theology. But today I share a quit wider spiritual horizon, like the Sufis, saying: "There are many lamps but only one light.« I also think about religions : »Religion separates, spirituality unites.« In the age of 18, I had the grace to receive a mystical experience. It changed my life totally. I thought, I had to study theology, but I had to study myself. I´m listening to the mystic call in music and try to be a companion on the pilgrimage to find the Goddess in our hearts. Once I studied the piano as a child, I shared my love to music as a teacher about 20 years, discovering singing in 1990 and overtone singing in 2000.Now, I give concerts and workshops in singing all over Europe. Where I am, I´m on looking for exceptional, good sounding and holy rooms for singing. As a baritone I´m a member in the overtone Choir of Dusseldorf since 2003.In 2004 and 2005 I organized the cologne overtone-singing festivals. 2008 we founded the choir »singing like it is in heaven« in Cologne and Berlin. I published 4 CD´s: "TranZenDance" (2000), "Music for meditation Vol.1" (2003), "Tabla meets overtone "(2007), "The Desert Call", Music for overtone singing, fujara and didgeridoo (2008)
