The Energy Boost

I was asked to record that song for some secret project and I needed someone to sing with me so I asked my father ! He wants to specify that he is NOT a singer and he only did this to generously help me out. Merci papa, je t'aime.
Merci à Daniel Ouellette pour l'enregistrement !

SOLO TU / STILL LIFE

Love blossoms not just for those we meet and care for, but for great art as well. Case in point, Kellerman found himself deeply enraptured with the 2002 film Frida, which tells the story of surrealist Mexican painter Frida Kahlo and her husband Diego Riviera. Kellerman became equally enraptured with a single, exquisite moment in the film’s soundtrack, which he re-imagines here with lush and evocative orchestration.

06 Solo Tu  Still Life

TO TANGO TIS NEFELIS

Inspired by Greek singer Zaris Alexiou’s rendition, Kellerman sculpts his own interpretation of this sinuous musical myth through tantalizing percussion, sparkling guitar, and his signature storytelling flute. Taryn Louch’s entrancing vocal performance tells of the cloud nymph Nefelis, who is pursued and treated ill by two mischievous angels who become enamored with her. Mighty Zeus steps in, though, and transforms her into a cloud so that she can be free from torment — a bittersweet reminder that love does not always play out as we might expect it to.

07 To Tango Tis Nefelis

SHENANDOAH

Though this traditional American folk song has come to possess several different sets of lyrics, one story stands out: The tale of a love between a French trader and the daughter of a Native American chief that serves as a bridge between worlds. Kellerman illustrates the classic tune with flute, choir, and beyond.

09 Shenandoah

The love of brotherhood, whether forged by blood or circumstance, can be unbreakable. Just look at the partnership forged between Kellerman and his Winds of Samsara collaborator, Ricky Kej, as proof of how mutual respect and admiration can span oceans and result in beautiful works of art — including this powerful and uplifting track, which the team composed, recorded, and produced together across thousands of miles. “Aishwarya” tells the story of a young country girl seemingly destined for a simple life of domesticity. Instead, she summons the courage to disrupt tradition and defy expectations, to leave her home and study, to build a better life for herself, her family, and her community. This beautiful arrangement speaks to the love we must have for ourselves in order to make great risks — and follow even greater dreams.

WINTER 
(featuring Soweto Gospel Choir) 

Is love an art? Then it requires knowledge and effort. — Erich Fromm

Great classical composers like Antonio Vivaldi have spoken the language of love with unmatched fluency, translating its transcendent power into timeless melodies and harmonies. Here, an excerpt from Vivaldi’s beloved Four Seasons is given new life through the vivid voices of the Soweto Gospel Choir— and Kellerman’s unmistakable solo flute voice leading the way.
