The wind instrument gives “Of Valleys and Hills” a Celtic feel, but Highland Sanctuary is a Swiss Indie project. The instrument is the tin whistle and the source is Simeon, a multi-instrumentalist from Berne. But the term “Highland” does telegraph his use of Irish Folk sensibilities. Quoting the Soundcloud content:
In this song he poetically describes the ups and downs of a relationship. Highland Sanctuary: “The path is the goal you have to hold on to from the past to the present and into the future. The way leads over hills and valleys and exactly these roller coaster rides promote and strengthen friendships enormously.”

The result is a wonderful, cheerful song – a tribute to friendship!
As a child, Simeon attended piano and percussion lessons and at high school he also had guitar lessons and acquired music theoretical knowledge. Afterwards, he deepened his knowledge and skills at the University of Music. As versatile as his father, who is a professional musician, Simeon taught himself other instruments such as electric bass, contrabass, banjo, alto saxophone, trumpet and tin-whistle.
