This inspiring book based on a series of passionate and illuminating conversations between two dear friends discusses everything from God, music, friendship, teaching, death, and more. One friend is religious scholar, poet, and teacher of mystical traditions, Andrew Harvey. The other is acclaimed pianist, composer, and teacher Seymour Bernstein. At 87 and going strong, Seymour has become an inspiration to thousands of people across the country thanks to the recently released and critically acclaimed documentary Seymour: An Introduction, which led to the idea for this book. In Conversations with Seymour, readers will learn more about themselves through the insight observations of Bernstein and Harvey.
