Song of the Last Tree
There is an event in everyone’s life which can change the direction of your movement in life and have a strong influence in your future. The death of a mother is definitely such a catalyst. For me this was an event that touched me deeply. My way of expressing things is through music. I made a piece in memorial of her and now I am offering it to the world.
Since this happens to nearly everyone (losing a parent) I felt if I could bring a piece of my grief to share with everyone we could all feel a bit more connected. From this song grew an entire album.
The title for the album, “Song of the Last Tree" comes from the growing awareness of our fragile relationship with nature.
