Michael Klier macht schon seit mehr als einem halben Jahrhundert Musik. Als gebürtiger Berliner kam er 1993 nach Amsterdam. Er war Mitglied unterschiedlichster internationaler Ensembles und Orchester. Heute betreibt er eine florierende Unterrichts- und Coachingpraxis. Als Teamcoach bietet er dort Schulungen an, in denen die Kursteilnehmer miteinander komponieren, um so ihre ungenutzten kreativen Potentiale zu entdecken und besser miteinander zu kommunizieren. Denn: Musiker sind die Architekten des Himmels.
