Playing
I play for my friends:
The spiritual ones and the ones,
that I have met face to face in my life.
I play for the animals.
I play for the plants.
I play for the clouds and the sky.
I play for the stars.
I play for the moon.
I play for the streams and rivers.
I play for the lakes and seas.
I play for the mountains and the valleys.
I play for the air and the wind.
I play and it is
a continuous prayer.
Gratitude and
the joy of being allowed to be.

All September I prepared the studio recordings.
I looked very carefully for the ideal grand piano: my absolute favorite, the Bösendorfer 285 VC is unfortunately not available in Berlin. But I found one that also gave me goosebumps while playing – a top instrument from the Olympus of grand pianos!
I spoke to many great sound engineers, looked at studios and spaces.
Unfortunately, bringing together the individual elements at the same time and place was no longer possible this year. But next March, the time has come: I go to the studio and am really looking forward to this moment!!!

My personal musical wishes for next year are:
- a) The completion of a superb sounding phonogram
- b) Its publication together with a well-designed Gradebook
- c) Start or at least the perfect planning of a tour with impressive concert evenings
I wish you all a merry, peaceful Christmas and a wonderful New Year. May all your wishes come true.
A cordial
Harald
