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.

LOVE GETS OLD

Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love. — Mother Teresa
Though love can manifest in intricate sonnets, songs, and soliloquies, it’s often most poignant when spoken in the softest and simplest of terms. In this reimagining of the Chris Botti recording, Kelly Hall-Tompkins’ heartbreaking violin and Kellerman’s floating flute do just that, dancing together in sweet and simple honesty.

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.

14 Love Gets Old

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.

SI DO MHAIMEO

This traditional Irish song speaks of a young man on the verge of marrying an older woman for her wealth. Will he marry her, the song asks, and will he drink away her fortune as soon as he gains it? Kellerman weaves this tongue-in-cheek tale with jaunty and playful flights of flute and orchestra.

ZININZI
(featuring The Soil)
From Johannesburg to New York, Rio de Janeiro to Tokyo, fascinating cities have drawn so many of us into life-changing affairs of the heart. Yet as this propulsive track makes clear, great things can blossom just as fruitfully outside the concrete jungle as within. Kellerman composed this ode to the countryside with multi-platinum-selling South African acapella singing group The Soil. Here, he revisits the song’s rollicking hills and rolling meadows with tight vocal harmonies and drivingly percussive grooves.

01 - BAROQUE TO THE RESCUE Feat  KONSHENS THE MC And LADY ZAMAR

There are some melodies that just move you inexplicably, melodies that seem to transcend time and cultural barriers, that somehow unlock an innate musical sense that seems to be at the core of every human being. They keep their charm through many generations and times and seem to be timeless… On this album are some of my favourites – songs that I’ve wanted to record for a long time. 

Staying with the timeless theme, I’ve written two songs for Nelson Mandela, who’s influence and memory will sustain us far into the future. Another original song was inspired by the stillness and timelessness of the sun reflecting off the water in Cape Town.
