Joost Lijbaart - Free

The new solo album by Solo album by Joost Lijbaart.

Free is an album I've wanted to make all my life. I didn't know how, I was too busy and I was also a bit afraid of it.

And then there was a time when the world seemed to come to a standstill. A time of reflection and contemplation. It gave me the energy to embark on an inner dialogue, spiritually and musically.

Free became an inward journey. And on the way I found desolation and fear but also power, joy, passion and infinity. Free is all about unity, aboutbecoming 'one', but also about space and time. About what lies deep within and sometimes long concealed. - Joost Lijbaart

There is joy and a little melancholy in these solo conversations, a sense of spiritual yearning, an embrace of mystery and ultimately, a prevailing calm. Free has been quite the journey for Lijbaart, and a beguiling one at that. - All About Jazz
