Muom Overtone Singing Choir is the only vocal group that produces polyphonies with overtones. We compose, investigate and perform cross-cultural music of our own creation. His music is inspired both by contemporary currents as well as ancient choral polyphonies and ancestral music from different cultures. That is why Muom’s music is unique and timeless, with ancestral roots and at the same time avant-garde.
Over the past 13 years Muom Overtone Singing Choir has performed over 100 concerts, in emblematic halls such as Palau de la Música Catalana, MACBA Auditorium, crypt of the Sagrada Familia, Basilica del Pi, Casa del Tibet (Barcelona), Salnitre caves of Montserrat, Loarre Castle (Huesca), Samos Monastery (Galicia), University of Deusto (Bilbao) or St Ethelburga’s center for peace (London).
MuOM has also taken part in many important music festivals such as the (a)Phònica (Banyoles), the Festival Gong (Collbató), the Womex (Santiago de Compostela), the Llangollen Fringe (UK), the Festival Mil·lenni (BCN), Pedra Viva (Menorca), A Capella (Girona), Terrer (Priorat), Músiques Religioses del Món (Valencia), Musiquem (Lleida), the Sacred Music Week (Segovia) or the Sons del Camí Festival (Manresa), NaK Festival (Navarra) and No Border Festival (Brest, France), among others.
In 2020 MuOM organized the first World Sound Healing Day in Barcelona. MuOM has collaborated with musicians such as Carlos Núñez, Luis Paniagua, Ravi Ram, Mark Pulido and Nestor Kornblum and with the catalan artist Xavier Maristany. The composer Ramon Humet is currently writing a work for them.
MuOM has has released four albums (Andapindam 2009, Mu 2013, Ecstatic Voices 2017, TERRA 2021) and it has created music for the films “Un trabajo una película” (Xavier Martínez, 2019) and “Recordis” (Victor Brossa, 2019), for the short film “El código interior” (Pau Subirós, 2019). MuOM has collaborated in the music libraries “Dark Era 2018” and “Nada 2019” by Eduardo Tarilonte and on the album “Nanda” by Joan Condal (2018).
In the formative field, MuOM has taught overtone singing workshops at the “Punt de Partida” Pedagogy Conference (ESMUC), at the Oriol Martorell Institute and at the Escolania de Montserrat.
