U.S. Premiere Recording! Grammy®-winning performer and composer Andreas Vollenweider and his father, renowned organist Hans Vollenweider, collaborate on an album never before released outside of Switzerland. Recorded between 1979 and 1989, Traumgarten represents the work of several years and is a unique document of a very special relationship the one between father and son: an encounter on the bridge that is music. As Andreas Vollenweider explains so touchingly in his liner notes, it was by playing music together, sometimes improvising for hours, that the two musicians became much closer. So, in addition to being a collaborative album in the more traditional sense, Traumgarten is also intrinsically a very personal and transcendent musical dialogue, culminating in a powerful work of music. Traumgarten has been digitally remastered for this release, and contains detailed liner notes and family photos provided by the composer.
