Šestinásobný držitel ceny @RecordingAcad #GRAMMYs @vmendozajazz se jako dirigent Českého národního symfonického orchestru @CNSO_official vrátil ke kořenům. Výsledkem je album Freedom Over Everything. Máme pro vás recenzi ▼ tydenikhrot.cz/clanek/recenz…
My deep gratitude to philosopher #DrCornelWest, who wrote “Justice is what Love looks like in public”
This song is a tribute to the courage & unity that is the promise of our country, responding to “the catastrophic with compassion, without drinking from the cup of bitterness”
"...another touchstone in the genre of “Third Stream” music...Add to that the rapping of @theroots' @blackthought to the final Concerto movement, and you have a truly unique 21st century work." – Straight No Chaser
