Johannes Schmoelling has developed a reputation as the guru of electronic concept albums. Born in Lohne, Germany in 1950, he began playing the piano at age of eight. By age twelve he had developed a fascination with the pipe organ, and within two years had mastered the instrument to such a level that he began to play professionally in various churches. After graduating college in 1978 with a degree in sound engineering, Schmoelling began doing work for live theatrical performances at Berlin's famous Schaubühne am Halleschen Ufer, allowing him to combine his technical and musical interests.
