Karunesh

Karunesh

Karunesh ( _hi. करूनेश, translation: compassionate) is a new age / ambient musician born in Cologne, Germany in 1956. His music has strong Asian and Indian influences prevalent throughout, with liberal use of Indian instruments (like the sitar for example).

Although he had been drawn to music as a child and played in bands as a teenager, he chose to study graphic design as a career. However, after attaining his degree, Karunesh was involved in a serious motorcycle accident. His brush with death prompted him to rethink his life and embark on a spiritual journey of sorts, and in 1979 he travelled to India. His accident also prompted him to choose music as a career instead of graphic design.

In 1987, Karunesh released his first album entitled "Sounds of the Heart," which was met with success, followed by "Colors Of Light" the following year and "Sky's Beyond" the year after that. As of 2006 Karunesh has released 17 albums (see "Discography" below).

Karunesh has lived in Maui, Hawaii, since 1992.
