Iconic musician collective Ensemble Galilei announces its new album There I Long to Be, which will be released September 26, 2025 on Sono Luminus. This special 2-CD release coincides with Ensemble Galilei’s 35th anniversary and marks the group’s fourth recording with the GRAMMY®-winning label, following 2015’s From Whence We Came.
“a genuine love for the music they’re playing, an uplifting spirit in their performances, and not-a-little fond sentimentality toward their work”
