On Saturday afternoon, March 26, 2011, Robert Van Horne, pianist and composer was invited to a special meeting of Bay Area business people. Their purpose - wanting to help the victims of the recent earthquake and tsunami that devastated parts of Japan on March 11th.
The meeting was organized by Mr. Alex Kurosawa, president of KPMF and held in San Jose, CA.
At the end of the meeting and after much discussion about holding a series of concerts with all funds going to the disaster victims, it was suggested that Robert compose a new song for the project that would let those afflicted in Japan, know they would not be forgotten.
"I was so inspired by the dedication and volunteerism of all the people at the meeting," Robert says, "that I went home and composed a new piece of music with the title: THERE IS HOPE THROUGH MUSIC."
