Michael A. Muller is a composer who translates the language of experience into sound. His wide-ranging work—spanning film scores, installations, and original recordings—emerges from a practice of deep listening, transforming both delicate human moments and the grandeur of natural phenomena into rich sonic environments. 

His compositions weave contemporary electronic elements with traditional orchestration, creating musical landscapes that obscure the boundaries between past and present. This versatility has resulted in projects including narrative films, commercial scores for brands and site-specific curations for institutions.

After two decades as co-founder and multi-instrumentalist for Balmorhea, Muller's current work focuses on the liminal plane where sound shapes consciousness—investigating the intrinsic ways music transforms space, time and human connection.

His recordings are released by Deutsche Grammophon, the world’s oldest record label, and feature collaborations with Víkingur Ólafsson, Hania Rani and Alva Noto, among others.
