“The idea to compose music for nature was born from a very special, almost spiritual experience I had a few years ago at the Botanical Gardens in Edinburgh. Nils Mönkemeyer, William Youn, and I have long been engaged in conversations about nature and what its sounds mean for our lives. Last year, a strong desire grew to dedicate a musical project to this idea. Our goal is to express our appreciation of and sensitivity to nature through music, to create a space to reflect on its beauty, and to radiate the shining hope that binds us all together in this resounding, wonderful universe.”
