Subud’s own Lucas Richman was interviewed by William Ford of AtlantaMusicCritic.com! They say: “Over the course of nearly four decades at the podium, [Lucas] has garnered an international reputation for his graceful musical leadership in a diverse field of media…” He warned that we’ll not catch him dancing in public, but we can enjoy his musical grace and hear about his brief correspondence with Aaron Copland!
