Since 1991 I have published my music on CDs. For every CD I have drawn a cover. In each cover are visual relations to the form and context of the composition, mainly as musical notes of a series or a formula or a form scheme. Also the colors make clear, from where the works or scenes originate. For example in my work LICHT (LIGHT) – The Seven Days of the Week – Green is related to MONDAY from LIGHT, Red to TUESDAY, Yellow to WEDNESDAY, Blue to THURSDAY, Orange to FRIDAY, dark Blue or Black to SATURDAY, Gold to SUNDAY from LIGHT.

Each letter is for me like a musical note with pitch, duration, intensity, timbre, position in space. Listening to the musical composition and looking at the related cover makes it possible to discover the relationship between sound and sight.
