When I decided to start learning the piano during quarantine in March, the intro to this song was the first thing I taught myself. 💙

I was fortunate enough to see JMB when he played in NYC last year, and to hear him introduce his songs. There is a very intellectual and introspective thread in his music and his inspiration, that weaves in with an uncannily clear and accessible sentiment, which he is simultaneously (and charmingly) self-aware and self-conscious of. To hear and watch him wring his hands over these revealing intros was to watch an artist agonize over bearing his soul and that of his music. We are lucky to have someone who can bridge the gap between the avant-garde, high art establishment and something so emotionally accessible. We are lucky to have someone who has the ability to be in both places at once, and who so obviously lives that struggle. It is a beautiful expression of a life less travelled, where the balance between monumental concepts and daily life is so difficult to maintain when so many people simply justify one way of being over the other. This all shows in the music, and it was an awe-inspiring and meaningful experience to find that JMB wasn't merely channeling this ability but generating it out of a very conscious and profound process. I hope many more people will get to experience this as he continues in his success.

I will see him in concert on October 11... to me it's an event. Very profound and inspired comment.

Magnifique. Félicitations ! Tu es un très grand compositeur et un très grand musicien. Tu viens nous chercher au plus profond de nous.

La beauté est multiforme. Parfois, elle passe par l'ouïe, puis elle trace des sillons et se taille une place en plein coeur... et éveille l'esprit.
Cette musique porte à la fois une puissance et une espérance...

That bit that starts at 4:45 makes me twice as much ecstatic when I play it as I am when I just listen to it. Truly my new favorite piano piece. What a work of art!
Thanks a lot for making the sheets available!

Bought this thanks to your comment, hadn't realised it was available so thanks! Massively out of my talent range but that's my issue... 🙄
