When I was invited to write and record for the OJM, we were in the middle of the Covid pandemic-very uncertain and puzzling times for all of us.

I had collaborated with OJM a few times since 2009, and always enjoyed playing and writing for them. This experience was certainly different-everything: the writing, the playing, the purpose, the travel, the masks…

I am grateful and proud to have this document to share. I want to thank everyone at the OJM for their great playing, organization, spirit, and for the strong commitment to the music.

Salud, Guillermo Klein
