Says Corneille Hutten, of CH2: “Our collaboration came about very organically. We were booked for the same event, and after hearing Hein’s incredible story and enjoying his motivational session, I approached him with a very unique idea. There is so much synergy between Hein’s powerful message and the virtuoso, exotic style of CH2, it just made instant sense. Music has the power to harmonise people’s minds and open their hearts, which makes them more susceptible to the power of Hein’s message.”
Hutten continues that Wagner relies on hearing as his primary sense to get along in the world.
“This, combined with music, which is audible, makes our offering a language and message of the ear and the heart. Combining the very powerful message of Hein’s life’s story and his humour with the intense playing of CH2 makes for an unforgettable session.”
Wagner adds that CH2 has been conquering the world with their music from the southernmost tip of Africa to the US and Japan.

“Although I’m blind, I can imagine the visual impact of what they do on two nylon stringed guitars. I understand that it must be visually absolutely mesmerising and believe together we will provide a truly magical, unique and impactful experience,” says Wagner, who has been pushing boundaries all his life.
“He has become such an inspiration to so many, helping them realise with gratitude how many positives they still have in their lives. He inspires people to excel at whatever they put their minds to and to focus on opportunities, rather than falling into the trap of wallowing in misfortunes. Together we’ll take participants on a journey of self-discovery to become the best versions of themselves, both at work and in their private lives,” Hutten explains.
Both Wagner and CH2 have achieved success through dedication, belief, hard work, perseverance and never taking their eyes off their goals.
Says Wagner: “We’ll teach you how to have faith in your abilities and set goals. It’s the first step towards turning the invisible into the visible. Our greatest weakness in life is giving up. If at first, you don’t succeed, try and try again. Often you need just one more try. If you really want something, you’ll do whatever it takes, even when the odds aren’t in your favour at all. Nothing will be able to distract you from reaching your goals if you set out to achieve them with all your heart. Reach for the stars using the basic core principles of life.”

Wagner continues that CH2 has been pushing the boundaries to see what more could be achieved by expanding beyond the limitations of two acoustic or classical guitarists to generate a greater, more varied and explosive sound unique to the duo.
“They incorporate a wide spectrum of musical genres and styles into a fusion that is both easily recognisable and unique, creating a spectacular virtuoso dynamism and energy on and off the stage.”
A Blind Man with Music and Vision will focus on the techniques and methods needed to achieve ultimate success for your company, yourself and also those around you, as well as overcome obstacles. Corporate companies are invited to book.
Hutten concludes: “We offer companies the opportunity to ensure staff and management perform at their ultimate levels to create success for both the company and themselves. This is one of the most powerful and engaging corporate speaking sessions on the planet. Hein is a world-class motivational speaker and CH2 won their category in the biggest guitar competition on earth in the USA hosted by the legendary Lee Ritenour – proof that through hard work, belief and focus anything can be achieved, no matter your shortcomings, disabilities or background. To inspire people is a choice. Your choice.”
This trio will leave you breathless!
