Magnus Johansson

Swedish musician, teacher and author, born in Sala in 1965. My first instrument was the recorder at age 7, then I studied percussion, piano, clarinet and organ, eventually becoming an organist in 1986. Extensive studies in music theory with a diploma in musicology. After many years playing the organ and teaching mainly piano and music theory I started to rediscover the Orff-Schulwerk from a teachers viewpoint and took up playing percussion. Invented the Johansson grip in 2010.
