2016 Grammy Winner Paul Avgerinos brings you Night Illusions, Day Dreams...At night we dream, traveling to other realms. In day we practice living, awakening the Body and the Mind. Two parts to the whole reality. Two moments of surrender. Ascend from stillness up to the seat of love where we see the universe throught the eyes of contentment. Vast star systems undulate in perfect order and reveal the real beauty of the cosmos. Why not the human soul? 　　 　　When Paul Avgerinos graduated from the Peabody Conservatory of Music in 1980, as a full scholarship honors student, he had already performed as a bassist with Isaac Stern, Jean Pierre Rampal, The Beaux Arts Trio, Baryshnikov and many other great classical artists.
