about

High Heart is the fifth album by US saxophonist and composer Ben Wendel. Riding a surge of interest in his playing over the last few years, Ben returns with an album that defines where he is, and his place in the world.

High Heart is a personal statement and reflection of Ben’s own journey in a society of increasing complexity, oversaturation, and social imbalance. It’s an album that opens discussion and raises questions about how artists ‘create art that is personal and meaningful in an increasingly impersonal time’.
