Album Description

Psychology in a New Key explores the intersection of political expression, therapeutic music making, and internal and external liberation. This album reflects my belief that music connects inner psychological processes with external political expression. I aim to cultivate critical consciousness and challenge the systems of oppression that thrive under capitalism and fascism. The nine tracks on this album center themes of solidarity, historical reflection, and radical empathy. ::: Laeh Su Tel! has been a dream of mine for a long time on the concept of creating a fully improvised solo piano project based on a repertoire of political songs from diverse traditions. I immersed myself in locating, studying, and deeply internalizing a library of resonant political music from a wide range of cultural, social, and historical contexts. Over time, this concept album grew into a concept series, unified by the theme of authentic musical expression as an act of solidarity for the working-classes, underclasses, and Indigenous peoples of the world, a celebration of revolutionary love and collective consciousness. I hope to evangelize the potential of music therapy in addressing trauma- informed care, neurodivergent awareness, and critical social analysis rooted in the fight for liberation and solidarity for all people!
