Last year after COVID started to decimate Wuhan and the world had no idea what was to happen, Bill Karz of The Los Angeles Tourism & Convention Board asked me to compose a piece of music for the city of Wuhan to show Los Angeles’ support of its people and their struggle against this monster virus. For me, music is the highest form of connection.

I am NOT getting into political conversation here. I am talking about human connection. After the piece was composed, recorded, and filmed, it was suggested we reach out to the Wuhan Conservatory of Music and its students and run an idea by them concerning making this a true collaboration rather than a ballwashing of a "Oh, those poor people…" video. This is the result of our collaboration. - “Wuhan Jia You” God bless us all....
