“Music can transcend these boundaries.” Let's take it back to the burbs of Boston, where if your not eating at Joe's Pizza, you’re escaping to the outdoors, chasing the spirit of adventure, and finding freedom. This was Johan’s world. Growing up, he immersed himself in music, but not necessarily as a musician - his true love was found with classical composition, with heroes like John Williams, and Beethoven. While everyone was listening to the new Eminem or Outkast albums, Johan was bumping the soundtrack to Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Los Ark. Even though he found himself disconnected from pop-culture, there was something much deeper that he was connected to, and perhaps something that truly connects us all. This would soon lead to his life purpose. His mission was to get people to appreciate classical music - this thing that could mean so much to so many people. After attending Yale, and putting together multiple experimental theater productions, trying to deliver classical music in new ways, he quickly realized there was no way to do this without a platform. But one night, life changed, as Johan was introduced to Kanye’s, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. It was an album that took him along a bridge, leading him to pop-culture. And it would be this same bridge that would lead the world to classical. This is a story about the never-ending pursuit to fulfill your purpose. This is about discovery and becoming. This about creating our own “beautiful dark twisted fantasy” and finding something that connects us all. Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Johan. #MamaWeMadeIt
