It’s about celebrating the gift of the music we love across generations. These gifts stem from our common humanity, so essential to our survival as a species. The musical arts are a gift that is shared between musicians, and also with listeners as part of a perpetual conversation. Cherishing the music of the past blesses us to make the music of the future.

„Album Release 12.04.2024“
Es geht darum, das Geschenk der Musik, die wir lieben, über Generationen hinweg zu feiern. Diese Gaben entspringen unserer gemeinsamen Menschlichkeit, die für unser Überleben als Spezies so wichtig ist. Die musikalischen Künste sind ein Geschenk, das zwischen den Musikern und auch mit den Zuhörern als Teil eines immerwährenden Gesprächs geteilt wird. Wenn wir die Musik der Vergangenheit wertschätzen, sind wir gesegnet, die Musik der Zukunft zu machen.
