Péter Ivan Müller (birth name: Ivan Peter Vegh Kovalcze born in Budapest, December 12 1951) also known by his Sziámi ("Siamese") nickname, is a [[:Category: Hungarian|Hungarian]] poet, songwriter, singer, film director and cultural professionals.

He is the adoptive son of writer Péter Müller, with whom he has created several works together.

==Biography==
In 1973, he obtained a degree in radio editing and became a reporter in the working studio of the Hungarian Radio, and in 1974 he obtained a circus and variety director qualification at the State School of Artist Training. In 1976, he graduated from the Faculty of Arts of the Eötvös Loránd University with a degree in Hungarian-French teaching. In 1981, he attained a degree in film and television directing from the College of Theater and Film Arts. His exam film was ''Ex-Kodex''.

He is considered one of the defining personalities of the Hungarian alternative culture. His lyrics and the peculiar, unrestricted music of his fellow composer, [[János Gasner]] laid the foundation for the success of their group, [[Sziámi]]. Since the formation of the band, it has undergone several member changes and has been completely transformed several times. Their songs were adapted and played differently by each new line-up. After the death of János Gasner in 2009, Müller announced that with the death of his co-author, Sziámi as such had ceased to exist. Since then, he has performed with his own full name and, since 2012, with the Péter Müller Sziámi And Friends band, as well as with Béla Szakcsi Lakatos (Pianissimo! Duo), Péter Kirschner (Felevad duo) and other musicians.
