Welcome to Paul Korda.com Thanks for visiting the site. You'll find a wide spectrum of music that is based on feeling and depth. It is a journey to find purpose in creativity that goes beyond commercialism or idolatry. You will find the reason for this in "Beyond Other Worlds" by Paul Korda, his autobiography that is in progress. Music is the fuel of the cosmic engine.Sustainable energy, the language of celestial bodies that creates the dance of the Universe. Listen, sing along and be a part of our journey!
On a bright note Francesco Renga's CD "Orchestra e Voce" with Paul Korda's "Se Perdo Te" spent 6 months in the Italian charts Top 30 selling more than 130,000 CDs, as four Paul Korda albums are selling on iTunes, Play.com, Amazon.com, Jamster and other sites. Be one to have an album!
On the site read about Paul writing songs sung by Roger Daltrey, Frankie Valli, Dave Edmunds, Robert Palmer, Elkie Brooks, PP Arnold, Italy's Mango, Francesco Renga, and Patty Pravo, as well as singing and writing with guitar wizard Allan Holdsworth.
Also as an actor in the London cast of the musical "HAiR" to "Spinal Tap", "Pirates of the Caribbean", ''The Pink Panther" to a feature on TV comedy show ''My Name is Earl''.
The Language of Love features Paul's journey from his second birthday party to his sons Felix and Lewis growing up, his friends Chris Spedding who plays guitar on the track, PP Arnold, who recorded some of Paul's early work, including the original version of "Se Perdo Te" called "The Time has Come", Sonja Kristina (Curved Air) who appeared with Paul in the original London cast of HAiR and their 2007 appearance at San Francisco's Summer of Love, as well as the Santa Ana cast of the show, along with HAiR producer Michael Butler, and Chicago guitarist Chris Pinnick who played with the Paul Korda Band at the Roxy in Los Angeles.
The main reason for the songs being is the uniting power of Love, that lives in the creativity of all people, no matter what background or country they are from. Creative artists swear by it as being the fuel of all great creations, as this is.

Peace One Day, the organization backed by the UN that created Peace Day on Earth (September 21st) has selected Paul Korda & the 32nd St/USC Choir video "Beyond the Darkness" as a "Song for Peace". See the video & then donate to the cause of creativity.
Recorded at A&M Studio A Hollywood, where "We are the World" was recorded, and on location in East Los Angeles, the music video was born out of Paul Korda teaching youngsters at the community centers of East Los Angeles, to outlet their frustrations through improvisational music creation. Seeing the benefits to the kids, brought about by this spontaneous creation, he then went on to write "Beyond the Darkness, with the intent of gaining financial resources for this form of education, and with the help of many, made this video, proceeds that will contribute to the Magnet School Program for the Performing Arts.
There's little doubt that creativity can help steer our Earth back from the edge of destruction and help children to retain their innocence and build their character, avoiding the pitfalls of urban destructive behavior, especially that of abusive parents.
So support creativity by sending an email of the download and the artwork as your way of showing your support for the expression of kids through the performing arts and help the schools maintain their programs in the current state budget shortfall.
Directed by Emmy winner Linda Yellen, arranged by Phil Collins' keyboard player and film composer J. Peter Robinson, guitars by Mike Miller (Chick Corea) Choirmaster Mark Johnston.
Special thanks to Herb Alpert and everyone involved for helping to make it all possible.
All the love in the World to the children of the 32nd St./USC Magnet School for the Arts and the children from the community centers of East Los Angeles, as well as all the children
of our small planet.
