VMP’s mission has always been about exploring music together. It’s about how we, as humans are meant to experience life with one another, and a belief in music’s ability to unite us.
As I reflect on the gravity of our current state, I’m amazed at how the world has come together in this season of crisis. At the same time, I can’t help but think that we — the VMP community — have always been together, no matter the circumstances.
43 countries wide. More than 100,000 people deep.
We’re together — despite being on different continents, from different backgrounds, speaking different languages — under a shared understanding and belief in the power of music.
We’re together, through music.
I’ve been watching stories come in from members in places like Italy, France, China, and the United States. People saddened and deeply affected by the circumstances in different ways, but leaning on music and each other as a way to inoculate themselves against isolation. All of a sudden, the power of a box of records goes well beyond what’s inside.
This is how we see our mission come to life. It’s how we determine success as a team.
We originally planned for this to be the first of a quarterly update series, and we’re excited to share those updates, but they feel so insignificant in comparison. We’re going to keep spinning — literally and figuratively. We’re going to continue to advance your experience as a member of this community. And we’re doing this with more conviction than ever before, because the world needs music. The world needsconnection.
However this crisis has affected you, we hope that you can keep spinning as well. |
