► Change starts within each of us. In this new world collaboration (virtual choir & string ensemble) 45 singers and instrumentalists from 17 countries and territories join to spread this message of love and hope with humanity. Drawing from the writings of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá on the centenary of His passing, these words resonate as a timeless, yet much needed truth:

“If you desire with all your heart, friendship with every race on earth, your thought, spiritual and positive, will spread; it will become the desire of others, growing stronger and stronger, until it reaches the minds of all men.
Do not despair! Work steadily. Sincerity and love will conquer hate.”

My endless gratitude to all those who graciously dedicated their time and energy to see this project through, I am eternally grateful.
