Six years ago, I had the opportunity to perform at the Italian Academy in NY thanks to George Lewis, where I met his student Jessie Cox. Last year, my book «Hidden Heartache» was published, featuring an in-depth essay by Jessie along with a new composition, which I will premiere tomorrow.
Jessie Cox: "For me, music came as a practice, as an intervention in the world. Music was never just about music. It is about life, about death, about politics, about society, about cultures, about nature and ecology, the cosmos, and more."

Looking forward to the «Piano Bar» next Sunday at 5 PM at Walcheturm Zurich. Join us for 45 minutes to hear the world premiere of «Black/blackness – After Mantra(s)» by Jessie Cox, followed by a short discussion and a «Space Martini».
A meditation on humanity’s role in the universe.
