Mike Hovancsek
Mike Hovancsek (born c. 1967) is a (multi-instrumentalist ), (visual artist ), and (writer ) from Kent, Ohio, United States. He collaborated with Egyptian composer Halim El-Dabh since the late 1980s (performing and recording with him, and restoring his early electronic music), and is a former member of the multicultural experimental group, (Pointless Orchestra ). He plays the ''guzheng'', koto, guitar, waterphone, and percussion, among other instruments.
In the late 1980s he founded the Pointless Music label, which was devoted to experimental music releases. In his solo work, and with Pointless Orchestra, he recorded and/or performed with such musicians as Jin Hi Kim, Z'EV, Amy Denio, Anna Homler, Illusion of Safety, Reed Ghazala, John Hajeski, and Barry Chabala.
Mike Hovancsek's current output, which he describes as "multicultural chamber music,"〔http://cdbaby.com/cd/hovancsek〕 includes solo recordings, solo performances, and collaborations with many notable members of the world music community. His music often combines instruments from several different cultures in unique ways. For example, on "Hybrids" (from his ''Temporal Angels'' CD) he combines the Chinese ''guzheng'', cello, violin, and Middle Eastern dumbek. On "Somniloquy" (also from ''Temporal Angels'') he combines koto, english horn, and choir. Reviewer Anastasia Pantsios of ''Cleveland Scene'' describes his work as "elegant, textured music that sounds spare and understated yet is quite complex."〔("Locals Only: Not Pointless Anymore: Mike Hovancsek Launches A New Label With The Release Of His Solo Debut," by Anastasia Pantsios ''. Cleveland Scene'', v. 11, no. 37 (January 7, 2004). )〕
Mike Hovancsek is a graduate of Kent State University, where he majored in psychology and later earned a master's degree in counseling. While there he studied Chinese music with Chia-chun Chu and Japanese koto with Anne Prescott.
