HI - I'M PAUL!
You probably know me from my recordings on YouTube! I was born in 1998 near Leipzig, Germany and always loved playing music, especially because of the way it can connect people, and the feelings it can communicate.
I have the incredible opportunity to share all of my work, my music and my travels with a wonderful audience on Youtube. This is also the place, where the idea to create an improvisation course came from. So, here it is - I hope you'll enjoy it!
MY STORY
My music education started when I was in kinder garden and my parents signed me up for 'early music education'. I really enjoyed making music, so we decided the next step would be to start me with classical guitar lessons during my first grade at primary school. About one year later, I’d also discovered the magic of piano music. When I was about 15 years old I was eventually introduced to the pipe organ at our local church - which caught my attention almost immediately! I went on to practise and experiment on this instrument for several hours at a time, never once getting tired of all the possible combinations of the different timbres.
After studying organ and sacred music full time at the specialist university in Halle (Saale) I'm now a full time musician, composer and Youtuber.
"I always admired people who could improvise, but I never thought I could do it myself.
After just a few lessons in Paul’s course, I played my first short meditation during service — and it felt completely natural.”
Thomas M., Parish Music Director in the U.S.
Thanks, Paul. This is a great course, I teach improvisation, and improvise a lot, in services and recitals. I found this really insightful and useful. Excellent to break it down into different styles and genres. It will equip those starting out with improvisation!"
