As you listen to Gandalf’s music, you know exactly why this "painter of musical landscapes" chose his name, years before J.R.R. Tolkien’s cult-epic Lord of the Rings captivated filmgoers around the world.
Gandalf’s music is inspired by the beauty of nature and by the wisdom and myths of various cultures. He tells sound stories and describes moods and magical moments that point to other realities behind the scenes in this fast-paced modern world. The music is intimate, tender, rich with grandeur and always heart opening.
Gandalf plays many and varied instruments (acoustic and electric guitars, sitar, saz, charango, bouzouki, balaphon, piano, synthesizers and sample-keyboards, and various percussion), blends acoustic with electronic and spherical sounds and weaves folk-elements into symphonic structures to create his unmistakable and unique style.
