I

Play

I play for my friends:

The spiritual and the,

who have met me 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’s

a continuous prayer.

The gratitude and

the joy of being allowed to be.

I spent the whole of September preparing the studio recordings.

I searched very carefully for the ideal grand piano for me: unfortunately, my absolute favorite grand piano, the Bösendorfer 285 VC, is not available in Berlin. But I found one that also gave me goose bumps when I played it – a top instrument from the Olympus of dream grand pianos!

I spoke to a lot of great sound engineers, looked at studios and rooms.

Unfortunately, it was no longer possible to bring the individual elements together at the same time and place this year. But next March the time has come: I’m going into the studio and I’m really looking forward to this moment!!!

My personal musical wishes for next year are:

1. The completion of an excellent sounding sound carrier
2. Its publication together with a well-designed music book
3. Start or at least the final planning of a tour with impressive concert evenings

I wish you all a peaceful Christmas and a wonderful New Year. May all your wishescome true.

Sincerely

Harald
