“When I first heard Tisziji's music, I felt like I had come home. Years ago, when I began listening to jazz, I had a similar experience with the John Coltrane recording, "A Love Supreme." As I was listening to the music alone one night, I was overcome by the feeling of a presence of great love in the room there with me. ... Playing with Tisziji was like going back to that night such a long time ago. When I did this recording with Tisziji, Rashied and Don, I felt like I had gone back home again to the spiritual and emotional place that was revealed to me that night. It felt like a complete unspoken musical understanding between the four of us — no need to explain anything or hold anything back — we were all speaking the same language. I could be completely myself — could sing and soar as high as my imagination was capable of taking me. What a privilege and a blessing!

"I feel very grateful and honored to be included in Tisziji's vision. He is a master musician devoted to a path of healing and spirituality in his music as well as the rest of his life — a rare glowing spirit in a world of greed, commercialism and mundane values. May our connection last for a long, long, time. Tisziji, thank you for bringing me home!" —Marilyn Crispell
