This is one of my new songs, it's called "Holy Life". Enjoy!

Music & lyrics, all instruments and voices by Rudolf Könen

Holy Life

You see that life is holy
You see how fragile it can be, you feel there is the need to save and protect
To heal what is hurt and to give it back
To open your eyes to the beauty and the grace
To everything there floating through time and space

You see: your life is holy
You see how tender it can be the more that you care
Shaking off the rules that keep you down – they made you feel so small
Shaking off all the barriers you’ve learned, this holy life is giving you a call

O holy, holy life, we’re going to the limits – at the edges we arrive

Holy Life

A new edit of a cover version of MANY TOO MANY, one of my favourite Genesis songs // Eine neue Version meines Covers von MANY TOO MANY, eines meiner Lieblingssongs von Genesis

Many Too Many

Die ewige Frage danach, wo wir Menschen stehen, wo unser Weg hingeht, wie es weiter geht. The eternal question of where mankind is leading to and where's the right way to go...

God, If We Only Knew The Way (Prayer For Life)

Ich bin Melodienmacher, Liederschreiber, Sänger und Akustikgitarrist.
Meine Musik bewegt sich zwischen locker-leichtem Folk und weiten harmonischen Klanglandschaften, zwischen Songs, Instrumentals und Liedern.

Auf meinen Soloalben A Life In All Colours, Under The Surface und The Secret Of Nature Is Patience präsentiere ich melodiöse Eigenkompositionen in einem harmonisch-warmen Klangbild ähnlich der Popmusik der Siebziger Jahre. 

Songs gibt es auf Bandcamp und auf Soundcloud zu hören. 
Ich bin außerdem Sänger und Gitarrist im Songwriterduo SIT'n'RUDI. 

I am a melodymaker, songwriter, singer and acoustic guitarist.
My music moves between easy going folk and wide harmonic sound scapes,betweensongs in English, instrumental pieces and songs in German.

On my solo albums, A Life In All Colours, Under The Surface and The Secret Of Nature Is Patience I present melodic original compositions in a harmonious, warm sound similar to the pop music of the seventies. 
You can listen to my songs on Bandcamp and on Soundcloud. 
I'm also a singer and guitarist in the songwriting duo SIT'n'RUDI.
