On March 7th of this profound 2020, I first heard the transforming music of Estas Tonne. Throughout the turbulent months that followed, while spending much of it in and around a hospital caring for my mother, one song in particular struck a chord. It took me back to the magical evenings I shared with fellow New Yorkers at exactly 7PM, thanking the essential workers and documenting the outpouring of emotions and communion. Those moments helped many of us find comfort during lockdown while planting the seeds to explore my craft and share this story.
