Toon Van Mierlo: A Pragmatic Approach to Composing

Ever wondered what the record is for how many tunes someone can compose in a day?! Well, I'm not sure of the official answer to that, but I'm sure Toon could give the winner a run for their money! His iconic melodies have travelled far and wide across the Euro-dance music scene over the last two decades and more.


Toon Van Mierlo is a Belgian musician of many talents including diatonic accordion, bagpipes, saxophone and whistles. He is best known for his work with multi award winning folk duo Naragonia, and for his playing with Hot Griselda, Novar and Duo Decombel-Van Mierlo, among many others.


In this episode, we discover how a life-long fascination with biology and the natural world has lead to the birth of many tunes and projects for Toon over the years, both musically and otherwise. Join me this month as I sit down with a very good friend to get to know them and their outlook on music and life a little better.
