Biography

Where Miha's musical journey began is a tricky question to answer. It may have been the small guitar he was given as a child with which he immediately began composing songs. Perhaps it was the "May Day Parade" of the wind orchestra in his hometown in Slovenia, that convinced him to play the saxophone. It might have been his parents' 50 CD box which drove him into the arms of music for good. Be that as it may, he devoted his life to music and has not looked back since.

Before Miha could find freedom as an artist, he had to collect some papers to prove that he had learned and practiced sufficiently as a musician. First he finished Music High School and went to Vienna to study the saxophone, where he received his Master's Degree, both with distinction.

In the meantime Miha played as a soloist with several orchestras, wrote many compositions, did numerous arrangements, listened to volumes of music and went to many museums. He also played in various saxophone quartets, conducted, read books, studied the musical language of Luciano Berio and analyzed Bach's counterpoint. Besides that he met a lot of interesting and less interesting people, often sat alone in thought and enjoyed being in nature as well as partying hard.

Miha is constantly arranging and composing music, often commissioned by great musicians. He is also part of the "Vienna Saxophonic Orchestra", an original ensemble consisting of twelve saxophones. His greatest passion and his strongest musical voice is in Trio Klavis, for which he composes and arranges as well. Miha's composition "Reflection" is the first official music video of Trio Klavis featured on YouTube.
