“We wait for the new year to appear to us like the hopeful sun bringing aspiring light to an eager world.”  – Munia Khan

 

The calendar turns every year, and so do the cycles and seasons  of nature.  This week music inspired by nature and the cycles and elements that are constant only in their changing.  These things touch the artists’ heart, inspiring awe and creativity.
