[Message in Physical CD]
Like the cuckoo clock in my apartment, it may ring at the “wrong” time, but true time continues to move forward, steady and keeping us on our way. I was deeply influenced by the many people I met in New York, sharing time together and exchanging experiences that shaped my music. Music always finds its way.This project is dedicated to my family in Japan, my husband Shu, my mentor Frank Wess, and all my friends and fellow musicians, with gratitude for their endless inspiration. This is the right moment now! Thank you for listening. Haruna |
