Let There Be Peace – A Song for Our Time (and for Everyone to Share)
“Let There Be Peace” by Johannes Kaiser-Kaplaner was created as a New Year song for 2026 – but its message reaches far beyond a single moment in time. It is a heartfelt call for reflection, compassion, and above all, peace.
The song captures a universal longing: the desire for harmony among people, across borders, cultures, and beliefs.
With its emotional depth and hopeful tone, “Let There Be Peace” invites listeners not only to pause and reflect,
but also to take part in spreading its message. It is music meant to be shared, to resonate, and to spark something meaningful.

this openness is not just a licensing choice – it is a statement.
