On Suellen Primost

Suellen Primost was a seasoned cellist, sound healer, and improviser based in Oakland, California, renowned for her soulful expressiveness and versatility across classical, jazz, and world music genres. With a career spanning over 40 years, she served as the Music Director for the international Artship Ensemble, a cofounder of DhunAnand foundation and collaborated with a diverse array of artists, including new age musician Shivpreet Singh and jazz bassist Kai Eckhardt.

Muriel Anderson is a world-renowned American fingerstyle and harp guitarist, celebrated for her technical mastery and her ability to seamlessly blend genres like classical, bluegrass, jazz, and flamenco. In 1989, she made history as the first woman to win the National Fingerpicking Guitar Championship, and she has since been named one of the top 50 acoustic guitarists of all time by Guitar Player Magazine.
