About

Andreas Vollenweider (born 4 October 1953 in Thalwil, Switzerland) is a harpist and composer who built his own electro-acoustic harp from scratch, finding the traditional instrument too limiting for his ideas. His 1983 album "Caverna Magica" broke through internationally, and in 1987 he received a Grammy Award for "Down to the Moon" - making him one of the rare new-age artists to reach mainstream pop, jazz and classical charts simultaneously. Over five decades he has collaborated with Bobby McFerrin, Carly Simon, Luciano Pavarotti and Milton Nascimento, selling over ten million albums worldwide.
