The Universe works in strange ways. Recorded almost three years ago, none of us could have known that when this recording was released the world would have lived through a life-altering pandemic or a tumultuous upheaval in the cultural awareness that now surrounds us. The work that opens this recording-with the words of Quaker George Fox that end with, "So be faithful, and live in that which doth not think the time long"-provides a haunting premonition regarding the time in which we live; Quaker George Fox is strangely prophetic about these days and perhaps provides a future caution for us all. The music chosen for this recording is strangely and poignantly relevant. It is our hope that all the music on this album will show us a way for living as we move forward and also give loving comfort to those who have lost loved ones.
