In this special Season 6 premiere of The Piano Pod, I sit down with Billboard-charting pianist and composer Chad Lawson — also the first musician ever appointed as a U.N.

In our conversation, Chad opens up about: The inspiration behind his latest album, Where We Are: Unity Edition How he turned adversity into artistry with his debut Set on a Hill Why combining music and wellness has become his mission And the story of how he became a U.N. Ambassador through music 👉 Stay tuned until the end for rapid-fire fun, personal insights, secrets to building a successful creative career, and an exclusive excerpt of Chad’s breathtaking piece “Sanctuary.” [Chad Lawson] Sanctuary full video: https://youtu.be/QZwL3ojac0I?si=dR6CUnz-UECGgH5g The Light Within: https://youtu.be/QZwL3ojac0I?si=dR6CUnz-UECGgH5g Website: https://www.chadlawson.com/ Podcast: https://www.calmitdownpodcast.com/ [The Piano Pod - a global hub for innovation, education, and connection in classical piano music] 💖 Subscribe for free or unlock exclusive materials with a paid subscription: https://thepianopod.substack.com/subscribe 🎵 Subscribe to our Sounds of Inspiration – Piano Works from Season 6: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeBrJAY2RQ_uqBAHXTkMwM4nISe9vxvDa 📫 Subscribe to our monthly newsletter: https://bit.ly/40kiukh Stay Connected: 🚨 Latest News: https://linktr.ee/thepianopod 🌐 Website: https://thepianopod.com 📱 Instagram: @thepianopod 😃 Facebook: https://facebook.com/ThePianoPodNYC ⏳ TikTok: @thepianopod
