High Heart is the fifth studio album by Grammy-nominated saxophonist and composer Ben Wendel. The album was released on October 30, 2020, under the Edition label.[1]
High Heart is described to be a personal statement and reflection of Wendel's journey in a society of increasing complexity, oversaturation, and social imbalance.[2] It is described to be an album that opens discussion and raises questions about how artists create art that is personal and meaningful in an increasingly impersonal time.[3]
The album artwork was designed by British designer, Oli Bentley. Every sleeve of the limited-edition coloured-vinyl run was individually hand painted before distribution.[4]
Most recently, Wendel has toured with the High Heart Project, collaborating and featuring film maker, pianist, and new media artist, XUAN.
