“From Massabielle with Love” is the title of a composition I wrote in January 2024. Lourdes is a city I am deeply fond of. Since my teenage years, I have returned there regularly: at first guided by my faith, and later simply because I feel good there. Over the years, I have developed my own little routines, especially my long walks around the Grotto of Massabielle…
It is there that the Virgin Mary appeared for the first time to Bernadette Soubirous, on Tuesday, February 11, 1858… exactly one hundred years to the day before my own birth. A coincidence that has always followed me with a kind of benevolent smile from destiny.
It is in this spirit, filled with memories and gentleness, that “From Massabielle with Love” was born.”
