Wolfgang Baron von Hildebrandt is an exceptional singer, songwriter and human rights activist from Cologne, Germany.Born June 29, 1960, Wolfgang was raised in Düsseldorf, Germany, where, thanks to the positive influence of his father, he began his musical career on the piano and guitar at the age of six.Wolfgang went on to study music intensively for over 14 years and became the lead singer of a major choir and later, choir director
Wolfgang is a spirited, charismatic and joyful musician who has been on a lifelong quest to promote a spirit of unity through his music. Wolfgang's accomplishments now include the successful recording of 10 CD's and over 100 songs for listeners of all ages, backgrounds and walks of life.In 1997 Wolfgang turned down an offer as the lead singer for the German Military Band and focused his efforts on pursuing his quest to turn guns into guitars as a focus of his musical career.Needless to say, his efforts were very successful as proven by winning his first contract with EMI records that spanned the years 1997-2005.
This brilliant singer found himself in front of an amazing audience, with his first major performance for Pope John II and Opera Singer, Andrea Bocelli in Paris, France.Five years later, on September 11, 2001, Wolfgang composed the European song “Lets Build a House of Peace” and dedicated it to the people of New York. On this day that lives on forever in the minds of so many Americans, Wolfgang took it upon himself to motivate and inspire young, enthusiastic NYPD officers to come together in a spirit of unity, and in their spare time team up with Wolfgang to record the chorus and back up vocals for this very touching song.Wolfgang and the newly formed NYPD choir recorded this song in the Electriclady Studios, New York.The German Chancellor, Gerhard Schroeder, then gave the CD as a gift from the German Government to then US President George W. Bush.
Wolfgang made his first performance for the United Nations in 2005 with the song he composed entitled, “United Nations”, under the musical direction of Emmy Award Winner, John Wineglass.Appropriately, the event was held at the UN Headquarters on July 3rd, 2005 in the Dag Hammarskjöld Library Auditorium in front of top official representative staff members and visitors of 191 Nations.Over six (6) million people throughout Europe viewed this outstanding performance presented by Wolfgang.The entire performance was recorded by ARD-TV station and was later made into a television documentary.
Wolfgang's political and spiritual beliefs are greatly inspired by the man that he still views to this day as his mentor, the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.He places his keenly discerning artistic ability in the service of helping others and spreading peace.He's done this through many TV campaigns, charities and concerts in Austria, Africa, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Paris, Texas, New York and more
Wolfgang later received an award as the Global Civil Society Champion for 2007 by the World Federation of United Nations Associations (WFUNA) for his outstanding work.Included in many of his awards is one from Lord Mayor Fritz Schramma of Cologne, Germany, for his humanitarian work and charity performances.He also received a very special “Clown d' Honeur Award” from the World Parliament of Clowns for which he is very proud.
The Earth Society Foundation, founded by John McConnell and Margaret Meade, asked him to perform yet again at the United Nations and the The Permanent Mission of Germany to the United Nations in New York wanted to honor him because of his songs promoting the spirit of coexistence and cooperation as enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations.So in the early hours, 1:48 AM, on March 20, 2008, Wolfgang's magnificent voice filled the UN Peace Garden with the spirituality of unity during the annual Peace Bell Ringing Ceremony commemorating the original Earth Day
As Wolfgang's impressive career continued to emerge, he received the distinguished honour of being knighted as a Baron by Katharina Princess Sobieski zu Schwarzenberg.Princess Sobieski is one of the last living relatives of the King of Poland, John III Sobieski, one of the most notable monarchs of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
Throughout his career, Wolfgang has been an advocate for civil rights and humanitarian causes and holds a lifetime membership with the N.A.A.C.P.In 2005 Wolfgang founded the International World Peace Tour and is Chairman, CEO, and Founder of the World Peace Tour 4 Children (WPT4C), which will produce worldwide concert tours.WPT4C will soon be a US 501(c)(3) with its first concert set to take place in the United States on September 21st, 2010.These concerts will feature local and famous artists promoting peace and tolerance around the globe.Wolfgang does all this while simultaneously developing projects worldwide in order to educate and empower children.
World Peace Tour 4 Children Mission Statement
World Peace Tour 4 Children
(WPT4C) Inc. is a Nevada based and soon to be finalized 501(c)(3) non-profit
organization...
"The core mission of
WPT4C is Children’s education. Education is
detrimental to a lasting positive change in our children's lives. Yet for
millions of children and youth in developing countries, education is beyond
reach. WPT4C strives to reach out to the world's most impacted children — those
who urgently need education to survive and thrive in more than 30
countries around the world and in turn to support and secure the building
of the culture of peace through the Kingian Principles of Non Violence.
In this context, WPT4C
believes very strongly that peace and education are closely interlinked and
that one is not possible without the other.WPT4C also believes very earnestly that today's younger generation needs to be educated to be empowered to become the agents of non-violence and peace individually and collectively to ensure a just, secure and equitable world. For that, they need to inculcate the culture of peace in
themselves through peace education and other societal support.
WPT4C wants to achieve these
objectives by raising awareness and mobilizing public opinion and resources
through organizing high-profile concerts in various countries in close
collaboration with world-renowned artists, local artists, and other partners as well as national governments and private sector. Through this creative way, WPT4C intends to contribute to sustainable peace and development both at the country
and global levels."

The synchronic vibration between object and metaphor is the magic of beauty that my artwork seeks out. My idea is that all objects, be they containers such as teapots, art supplies, tree roots, or concepts themselves, continually vibrate frequencies of meaning in a continuum of metaphorical variability…that our minds are but another coincidence on the shores of Universe where waves of energy flow in and out dynamically in collaboration with creation… manifesto continues at www.kenboe.com Come visit one of my art shows in January.

The poetry of the turn of the seasons, the beauty of nature and harvest, and the deep, deep connection of all these things with the Great Spirit. We return thanks to our mother, the earth, which sustains us. We return thanks to the rivers and streams, which supply us with water. We return thanks to all herbs, which furnish medicines for the cure of our diseases. We return thanks to the moon and stars, which have given to us their light when the sun was gone. We return thanks to the sun, that has looked upon the earth with a beneficent eye. Lastly, we return thanks to the Great Spirit, in Whom is embodied all goodness, and Who directs all things for the good of Her children.
Happy Thanksgiving, my friends; I am blessed, indeed I'm thankful for the love you have shared, selflessly. May each road that you travel be paved with a smile. Have a wonderful holiday....enjoyed in style!
