Gandalf – Musician, Composer, and Producer

Gandalf is a musician, composer, and producer who lives in Austria, near the "City of Music", Vienna. As a musical poet, he tells stories full of magic and fascination in his delicately structured compositions, mostly without words. His stories are ones of joy and sorrow, love, and universal harmony.
The language of his music is international, earning him recognition far beyond the borders of his homeland. Gandalf's work is inspired by both classical music and ethnic music from different cultures. He blends a wide range of instruments, including piano, acoustic and electric guitars, mandola, sitar, saz, balaphon, cello, flutes, oboe, and various percussion instruments, with spherical keyboard sounds. In his unmistakable style, he weaves folkloric melodies with grand symphonic arrangements to create soulful, melodic soundscapes.
Gandalf is a "magician of soul sounds". His multi-colored compositions radiate peace and harmony and are a balm for the soul. Many people, exhausted by the hustle and bustle of modern life, find comfort and healing in his music.
The artist's vision to dissolve the boundaries between musical categories and genres, creating music that speaks to people regardless of their mother tongue or skin color, has made him one of the most internationally successful Austrian musicians of today.
In addition to numerous album releases, Gandalf has also composed music for theater and film, worked with symphony orchestras (such as Symphonic Landscapes from 1990), and collaborated with international artists, including the legendary former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett. His albums are played on radio stations around the globe, and his music has been referred to in the United States as "Classical Music of the 21st Century."
Since the beginning of his career in the early 1980s, the artist has consistently pursued his vision of a global music that transcends musical categories and clichés. In addition to his many albums, Gandalf has also composed and arranged music for symphony orchestras (such as Symphonic Landscapes, Earthsong, and Stardance) as well as soundtracks for theater, film, and TV.
His music can be found on playlists of radio stations and internet platforms worldwide.

"Music is one of the most essential things in my life. Since my early childhood, it has stimulated my imagination and taken me on adventurous journeys to unknown places in my mind. Better than anything else, music is a way for me to share my most intimate feelings and visions with others, a way to communicate directly from heart to heart. Throughout my life, music has been a kind of sanctuary for me, a protected space to withdraw from the noise and chaos of this world and find comfort and peace."
— Gandalf
