âIt is not just the sheer, raw musical sound, which is enough to seduce Mt. Rushmore, but the feeling behind the sound, the spirituality that creates the music. You donât have to subscribe to this particular brand of religion to be swept away on waves of raptureâ¦. The music in MAMA comes from the heart, and even deeper than the heart. From the realm where music and survival are one and the same, and the faith to live is expressed in the courage to sing.â
