“If we want to be a movement, we’ve got to sing like a movement”.

So think not of this music in this particular effort as being something written for the bucks and shared to entertain… No… It’s shared to find the vehicle for the unanimity we need to be in each other’s hearts and prevail; so that the world can be repaired and so that we can be freed from the forces that might take us away from the possibilities of building a true peace. We need more people like Manny… we have to do this in each and every generation.

“Love and compassion are the reasons for being. When we choose wisely and if we can unite our souls like the seven colours of the spectrum, true harmony awaits us at the end of the rainbow.”

“Music changes the listener.  People all have opinions; this is good, that is bad, this is right, that is wrong. How can we make ourselves better? How can we make the world better?  Manny works to bring out the best in each person and Manny’s music is that little extra ingredient.

“In the early stages of developing Destination Peace into an international agenda, Manny has been heavily involved with the United Nations and its’ diplomatic community. He has already blessed other countries around the world with his spiritual leadership and his message through song”.

“Every such great awakening in our history has been signaled and sparked by the arts, the soul, talk and thought.  Those memorable events and experiences are forever an integral part of who we are, what we remember as sacred and what we hold dear.

No more prizes for forecasting the rain, only prizes for building the ark.”

“Join us on our journey to Destination Peace. We need thinkers, planners, dreamers, visionaries, provocateurs, skeptics, gurus, coaches, mentors, disciples, fans, street teams, publicists, tweets and beats. All we ask is your undying desire to make a better world.”

“In music each note is distinctive, but in composition a masterpiece is created. That’s how The Universe works composing a masterpiece from our differences“.

In the “Age of Connectivity” song is known to be a most effective connector. It is a positive tool to enhance the implementation of the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, foster universal peace building and stimulate new mindsets for caring communities.

“If we could all only see the face of God in everything and everyone, all the time, surely the world would be a kinder place.”

“One of the most moving experiences that I’ve ever had through music was hearing Manny “cantor” a psalm in Hebrew.  I didn’t understand many of the words, but I could share in the emotion and unite my heart in prayer.

Now Manny has created a prayer language from the many cultures of the world.  He hasn’t given us the meaning of the words, as this enables each of us to pray along with him at our own place of understanding. The same God who revealed himself in Hebrew is making himself known to all nations.  May we lift up our hearts to the God of all creation!”
