Ned Rothenberg - Looms & Legends (2025)

"How and why do we continue to make art in this bizarre time? Let me try here to offer a small break from insanity. I do believe that for listeners in our small pond, focused attention on sonic expression might help the individual keep a connection with their humanity and reinforce positive human endeavors—love, empathy, and truth-seeking. These seemingly obvious pursuits now need support as they are so unbelievably at risk. I offer this music as an aural refuge for mind and body. Such small breaks—with whatever nourishes your soul—may be an invaluable source of strength in the coming days." - Ned Rothenberg
