Deuter

Born in 1945 in postwar Germany, Deuter studied the flute, taught himself guitar and just about every instrument he could get his hands on, though it wasn’t until after a near-fatal car crash in his early twenties that he decided to pursue a career in music. Over the years, Deuter has continued learn and master a vast array of instruments, including the drums, the shakuhachi flute, the koto, sitar, Tibetan singing bowls, santoor, bhuzuki, piano and keyboard. He’s recorded and released over 60 albums and has sold too many records to count. “One thing that is important for me is that I love dancing on the edge of the unknown; to play around and open doors I haven't walked through before,” says Deuter. It is this very outlook that has kept him at the forefront of musical evolution for over 35 years.

Deuter is the seminal New Age musician, active for over 30 years! Deuter, also a Reiki practitioner, lives and works in the mountains outside of Santa Fe, NM, creating the contemplative, healing music he’s become renown for today. Through feeling, awareness, and experience, he expresses a spirituality that transports the listener to a space of wellbeing. He continues to learn and master an ever-expanding array of instruments including drums, shakuhachi, cello, koto, sitar, Tibetan singing bowls, santoor, buzuki, and keyboards.
