American Symphony, a film from Higher Ground, is directed by the talented Matthew Heineman and follows the journey of jon batiste and @SuleikaJaouad. It’s an intimate portrait of the healing power of art and love through personal success and private struggles. I hope you’ll check it

This film is nothing short of a masterpiece. An intimate observation of the symphony of life told with such an assured and honest lens by Mathew Heinermann

And as for jon batiste and the hypernova that is suleikajaouad , your love is the prototype.

We are all so lucky to be

Let's show some love to Grammy award-winning artist jon batiste on the release of his new album and for using his platform to reach beyond the music to help us grow the blood stem cell donor registry! 💙💚

How do you top a five-time Grammy Award-winning album that had critics applauding its rich blend of R&B, hip-hop, swing, jazz and pop?

If you’re Jon Batiste, you go even higher and wider. apnews.com/article/jon-ba…

“[T]here is no word in the English language to describe a parent who loses a child. Your children are supposed to outlive you by many decades …To witness your child’s death is a hell too heavy for the fabric of language. Words simply collapse.” - suleikajaouad
