After almost 40 years, Beautiful Sadness is my debut album of the best songs that I have written, composed and produced. It is a concept album that takes the listener on a musical journey of heartbreak, devastation, sorrow and finally self-redemption/salvation. The tragic story reveals a parallel universe where two women, of different eras in time, experience similar emotional turmoil, as they travel down a deep, acrid abyss of self-doubt and depression. Haunted by a shadowy figure that emerges from a place of pure sadness, the women begin to converge. Tears of sorrow and regret drip down like acid rain, as the figure fades from a life once known. Through the melancholy mist, we experience a musical transformation from darkness to light, as the women connect in time. Learning to coexist with the sadness, a newfound strength is revealed, turning what was once a tragedy into a triumph.
