After I became a Baha'i, I understood that God is one and as religion comes from the same source, religion must agree and be one. Mankind is one family and one race, the human race - therefore mankind is also one. Fueled by my commitment to the Baha'i faith and my newfound understanding, I began the greatest and happiest journey of my life.
I had always dreamed of expressing myself through original composition. Despite years of private lessons and formal education, that dream would not become a reality until I moved to Chile, South America in 1979. It occurred to me one day that the children of the campo (country) could learn the prayers and meditations of Baha'u'llah and 'Abdu'l- Baha more easily through song. Not only did I create melodies for the children to sing but as a member of the local orchestra I had the opportunity to try out my compositions with full orchestra. The music of Alientame was born. But it would be another twenty years before digital recording technology would make it possible for Alientame to become my first CD.
