As artists, we believe that aesthetics should not be a means to exclude and polarize, but to include and inspire. In this spirit, the music presented here is performed by musicians hailing from as many different cultural as musical traditions in ever-varying constellations. The substance of the proven meets, mingles and toys with the urgency of the new, the yet illegitimate.
With remarkably little effort, many entrenched divisions are being bridged here: young and old, amateur and master musicians from five continents prove that there indeed is an international language, spoken by all who care enough to not mind the effort to seek what unites us rather than to indulge our competitive instincts, who understand that our mere humanity makes us all the same. – Torsten de Winkel
