A Z U R E   C R Y S T A L  -  Beyond The Boundaries Of Sound

 
 

"Music is the key that opens the door to my greatest  emotions. It stirs in me the highest, most exalted epiphany. It's that moment when my hairs stand on end, as I discover that one note, melody, or chord which reminds me once again there is something greater than what we see and hear on this terrestrial plane."
