About

High Heart is the fifth album by Ben Wendel. Interest in the US saxophonist and composer has surged in recent years, and the new album is a definitive statement of where he stands in his career and as one of the finest musicians of his generation.The album is a personal statement and a reflection on his own journey through a society of increasing complexity, over-saturation, and social imbalance. It is an album that opens discussion and asks questions about how artists create art that is personal and meaningful in an increasingly impersonal time.A Note on the Vinyl Packaging:The idea of personalising every Vinyl sleeve was born to reflect the message of how artists create art that is personal and meaningful in an increasingly impersonal time. Therefore, each and every copy of the Limited Edition Coloured Vinyl album is hand-painted in a unique design.

December 2020

Saxophonist Ben Wendel describes High Heart as ‘a project of hope’ at a time when the digital age has challenged what it means to be an artist. Wendel explores this conundrum with a mix of wistful themes and wordless vocals, dense keyboard textures and solos that catch fire.
