Jan
Kuhar

Voice (bass)

Roots
I was born in Slovenia, a small, beautiful country at the foot of the Alps.

Study
I completed my studies at the Academy of Music in Ljubljana and at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis.

Professional
I earn my living mainly as a freelance singer. Since I am also a sign language interpreter, I still do that occasionally as well.

Why
I can’t imagine not singing. It gives me a sense of deep meaning.

Elective Affinities
Over the past few years, podcasts have been a great learning experience for me, especially when I’ve been on a farm taking care of the land, the chickens, the pigs, the deer, or driving a tractor.
