“This World is not Conclusion, A Species stands beyond. Invisible, as Music – But positive, as Sound” – Emily Dickinson
The original compositions in this collection developed out of my time as a music volunteer at the Zen Hospice Project between 2012 and 2018 and are dedicated to the residents and staff who gave their time to listen to my playing at that wonderful space on Hayes Street in San Francisco.
In memory of hospice residents Alba, Bob, Cheryl, David, Dedan, Elizabeth, Garrett, Genya, Jakov, Jamaica, Jeanette, Jenny, Katherine, Kevin, Linda, Luca, Penny, Randy, Richard, Sally, Vivienne, Vladimir, plus family member Bruce Bishop.
