I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to create the soundtrack for The National Aquarium’s Jellies Invasion: Oceans Out Of Balance. In doing so, I discovered that this ‘other universe’ has influenced me in more ways than I realized. This music was directly inspired by my experiences on, in, and around, some of the most beautiful places and waters on earth: tropical rain forests, the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and, of course, the mighty Chesapeake. It is appropriate that this music will support The National Aquarium in Baltimore in providing free tickets to wounded soldiers, and sick children and their families so that they too can experience these extraordinary wonders.
