While our current administration insists on magnifying the differences between people and nations, it is my sincere wish that this music may help remind us that we're all profoundly connected. May we one day be able to look at our neighbors, and finally, see ourselves. This album is offered in acknowledgement and gratitude for all of the ways in which we are connected . . . To each other. To the planet. To the source of our divinity. - John Balint.
