…through dark, warm sounds that evoke healing, through music that is mysterious and exotic as well as long limbed and almost aria like without the vocals

An utterly emotional exploration of the potency of love. The music will wrench your heart apart and then piece it back together again. Contemporary yet romantic. Sweeping strings, minimalist piano and the most heartfelt of flutes. This album masterfully takes you on the journey from me to we. Poignant and spellbinding.
Me opens this album with the study of a solitary figure who leads their life without a soul mate to share life’s moments with – enlightening and from the heart. I Wait For You is music that comes from the depths of your soul while waiting to find that person you could love so deeply – empty yet optimistic. The album concludes with the piece you never want to end. Lovers, together at last, create repetitive textures of joy – happy and hypnotic – as two people bring their lives together feeling true contentment in their own skin. Learn more about this album’s story…
In Me to We the probing duos appear to tear through the composer’s innards not simply to discover his heart, but to gather its myriad pieces and bind them back together again.
