Gis­bert is a musi­ci­an and music edu­ca­tor with a pas­si­on for ana­log and modu­lar synthesizers.

Gis­bert is fasci­na­ted by how visu­al repre­sen­ta­ti­ons make com­plex musi­cal topics more acces­si­ble. For him, music edu­ca­ti­on starts with curio­si­ty about the inte­rests and goals of the par­ti­ci­pan­ts. The impar­ting of know­ledge ser­ves as gui­dance in fin­ding one's own ways to make and under­stand music. His par­ti­cu­lar enthu­si­asm as an edu­ca­tor and musi­ci­an lies in the forms of indi­vi­du­al and coll­ec­ti­ve improvisation.
