Es gibt Veröffentlichungen – und es gibt Projekte, die über das Musikalische hinaus eine gesellschaftliche Dimension annehmen. Genau in diese Kategorie fällt „Gerald Ganglbauer’s Parkinsonglines“. Diese CD ist weit mehr als eine Compilation: Sie ist das klingende Resultat eines internationalen Songcontests, der Betroffenen und Angehörigen eine Bühne gibt.
Initiiert wurde das Projekt von Gerald Ganglbauer selbst – und das verleiht ihm eine besondere Dringlichkeit. Der Grazer, der Parkinson aus eigener Erfahrung kennt und eine Leidenschaft für rockige Klänge mitbringt, engagiert sich seit Jahren unermüdlich für mehr Sichtbarkeit und Bewusstsein. Aus einer persönlichen Motivation heraus entwickelte er die Idee, musikalische Stimmen im Umgang mit der Erkrankung zu sammeln und zu bündeln.
Der Wettbewerb, unterstützt von Parkinson’s Europe und der World Parkinson Coalition, brachte Beiträge aus Australien, Österreich, Belgien, den Niederlanden, dem Vereinigten Königreich und den USA hervor. Die stilistische Spannweite reicht von Country bis Jazz, von intimen Singer/Songwriter-Momenten bis zu kraftvollen Band-Arrangements.
Was „Parkinsonglines“ auszeichnet, ist seine Echtheit. Hier sprechen Menschen, die wissen, wovon sie singen – Erkrankte ebenso wie Begleitende. Die Stücke erzählen von Herausforderungen und Rückschlägen, aber ebenso von Zusammenhalt, Würde und Hoffnung. Die CD dokumentiert damit nicht nur die Ergebnisse eines Wettbewerbs, sondern ein internationales Netzwerk der Solidarität.
Die drei ersten Plätze gingen an Rob Georg (USA), Justin Thomas (Australien) und David Sangster (UK) – drei sehr unterschiedliche musikalische Handschriften, die dennoch eines eint: die authentische Auseinandersetzung mit Parkinson. Ihre Songs stehen exemplarisch für die emotionale Tiefe dieses Projekts.
„Parkinsonglines“ steht für die Überzeugung, dass Musik verbinden kann – über Ländergrenzen hinweg und jenseits individueller Schicksale. Gerald Ganglbauer hat ein Projekt geschaffen, das persönliche Erfahrungen in künstlerische Ausdruckskraft verwandelt und so ein starkes Zeichen im gemeinsamen Umgang mit Parkinson setzt.
Rob Georg: Best Singer-Songwriter for Parkinson’s Awareness in the United States of 2025
Date:Dec 22, 2025 Award Given:2026
We are thrilled to announce that Rob Georg has been awarded Best Singer-Songwriter for Parkinson’s Awareness in the United States of 2025 by Best of Best Review. This prestigious award recognizes Rob Georg’s dedication to both his craft and his commitment to raising awareness for Parkinson’s disease through his music. Rob’s song “Climb This Mountain,” written for his father during his battle with the disease, not only touched hearts globally but also won the Parkinsong competition in 2026, further solidifying his impact in the Parkinson’s community.
A Song with a Powerful Message “Climb This Mountain” is more than just a song, it is a deeply personal tribute to Rob Georg’s father and an anthem for all those fighting against Parkinson’s disease. In a poetic, heartfelt style, Rob’s lyrics convey the emotional journey of facing a daunting battle with grace, hope, and strength. His gentle, yet captivating voice delivers a tune that is both uplifting and reflective. The song resonates with listeners who have experienced similar struggles, providing comfort and solidarity.
“It’s a feel-good clip that reminds of The Sound of Music,” said Gerald Ganglbauer, CEO of Parkinsong, about the song’s winning entry. “Cowboys don’t cry, and Rob has a gentle voice. He is a good man as well as one loving his family. We would want him as our son. The tune is catchy too.” This recognition marks a significant achievement for Rob Georg, whose music continues to inspire and unite people facing Parkinson’s disease.
A Global Recognition Rob’s journey took an unexpected turn when “Climb This Mountain” won the 2026 Parkinsong competition, organized by the World Parkinson Disease Coalition (WPC). The competition, which attracted entries from around the world, selected Rob’s song as the winner after gathering votes via likes on YouTube videos. The song will be featured in a professionally produced album and performed live at the World Parkinson Congress (WPC) in Phoenix, Arizona, in May 2026.
“I wasn’t ready for what the universe dropped on me this week,” Rob shared on his Facebook platform, where he has an impressive 1.3 million followers. “It’s a moment wrapped in something bigger than us. This is the kind of thing that makes you stop in your tracks on the ranch road with goosebumps all over!”
What makes this win even more remarkable is that Rob didn’t submit the song himself. In a twist of fate, someone else must have recognized the deep personal connection and universal appeal of the song, perhaps a Parkinson’s patient, a caregiver, or someone who understands the struggles of the disease. “What I know is this: with every listen, every vote, every heart touched… it all carries my Dad’s legacy and his story forward,” Rob reflected. This act of submission added a layer of mystery and poignancy to the entire experience, making it even more meaningful for Rob and his fans.
Continuing the Legacy of His Father Rob’s song not only showcases his talent as a singer-songwriter but also demonstrates his commitment to preserving his father’s legacy. His song has become an emblem of strength and perseverance, resonating with families and caregivers across the globe. For Rob, the win is not just about a musical accomplishment; it’s a tribute to his father’s fight and the countless others who live with Parkinson’s disease.
This victory at the Parkinsong competition will further amplify Rob’s dedication to raising awareness about Parkinson’s disease. His music has touched so many lives, and with the release of the compilation album at the WPC 2026, his message of hope will reach an even wider audience. The album, which features the winning songs from the competition, will be a testament to the power of music in bringing people together and sharing the stories of those affected by Parkinson’s disease. Join Rob Georg in Celebrating the Win Rob Georg’s victory in the Parkinsong competition is a testament to the transformative power of music in raising awareness and bringing communities together.

Bei einem weltweiten „Parkinsong“-Contest wurde der Sieger gekürt. Hinter dem Projekt steckt der selbst von der Krankheit betroffene Gerald Ganglbauer.
„Parkinsong“. Die Wortschöpfung ist originell, die Krankheit dahinter heimtückisch. Das Wort setzt sich aus „Parkinson“ und „Song“ zusammen, dahinter steckt ein von Gerald Ganglbauer gegründetes Musiklabel. Der Grazer Autor und Verleger erhielt bereits 2006, damals erst 48 Jahre alt, die Diagnose, an Parkinson im Frühstadium erkrankt zu sein. Eine tiefe Zäsur in seinem Leben, aber kein Grund, untätig zu sein. Ganz im Gegenteil: Neben zahlreichen anderen Aktivitäten und Engagements in Selbsthilfegruppen gründete Ganglbauer das Label „Parkinsong“ und produzierte 2019 eine erste CD, auf der Rockmusiker mit von der Krankheit Betroffenen Duette sangen.
Im Jahr 2021 erschien eine zweite CD, die eine Aufnahme des „Parkinson Blues“ des Drahdiwaberl-Sängers Stefan Weber beinhaltete. Inzwischen hat die Krankheit Ganglbauer aber so fest im Griff, dass er einen Endpunkt seiner „Parkinson-Karriere“, wie er es selbst ausdrückt, kommen sieht. „Aber bevor es soweit ist, wollte ich noch etwas Neues auf die Beine stellen.“ Und das ist ihm gelungen.
Und wieder ist es eine Wortschöpfung, die hinter dem Projekt steckt: „ParkinSonglines“. Diesmal ist die Krankheit kombiniert mit Bruce Chatwins Buch „ Songlines“ (dt.: Traumpfade). Die Idee dahinter laut Ganglbauer: „Damit wollte ich die Schmerzlinien, die sich über alle Kontinente erstrecken, symbolisieren.“ In der Folge begab sich Ganglbauer weltweit auf die Suche nach Songs, die in Zusammenhang mit der Parkinson-Erkrankung stehen. Er sammelte Musik aus den USA, Australien, Europa. „Ich war überrascht und berührt, von welch hoher Qualität die Beiträge sind“. Die CD „Parkinsonglines“ wird Ende Jänner erscheinen.
Auf der Grundlage der Song Auswahl von Gerald Ganglbauer organisierte die „World Parkinson Disease Coalition“ Ende 2025 den Parkinsong-Wettbewerb. Die Regeln waren einfach: Die Stimmen wurden über Likes auf die YouTube-Videos der eingereichten Songs vergeben. 18 Songs schafften es auf die Shortlist – und diese Woche stand der Sieger fest. Die Wahl fiel mit großem Abstand auf den in Deutschland lebenden amerikanischen Singer/ Songwriter Rob Georg und den Song „Climb This Mountain“.
Der Musiker
ist selbst nicht erkrankt, hat aber seine Karriere unterbrochen, um seinen an Parkinson leidenden Vater zu pflegen. Für Rob Georg bedeutet der Sieg mehr als nur Anerkennung. Er ist auch eine Möglichkeit, das Vermächtnis seines Vaters weiterzutragen. Der Song sei eine Botschaft der Liebe und des Erinnerns, ein Zeugnis der unzerbrechlichen Bindung zwischen Vater und Sohn. Auch Gerald Ganglbauer ist mit der Wahl zufrieden, für ihn geht es beim Parkinsong-Wettbewerb aber nicht nur um Musik, „sondern darum, die Geschichten von Menschen zu würdigen, die mit Parkinson leben.“ Seinen Sieger-Song wird Rob Georg im Mai dieses Jahres beim World Parkinson Congress in Phoenix, Arizona, live präsentieren.
„Musik hat
erwiesenermaßen eine positive Auswirkung auf das Nervensystem“, so Gerald Ganglbauer, der das Leben mit Parkinson auch in seinem Buch „Kopfbahnhof“ geschildert hat. In dieser Zeitung wurde Ganglbauer einmal so beschrieben: „Dieser Mann hat viele Begabungen, das Nichtstun gehört nicht dazu.“ Trotz Rückzugsgedanken und Einschränkungen wird sich daran wohl nichts ändern in der nahen Zukunft. Es gibt schließlich noch viele Berge zu erklimmen.
Parkinsong has announced Rob Georg and Kristin K. Smith’s ‘Climb This Mountain’ as the winner of its 2026 Parkinson’s song contest.
The non-profit organisation was launched in 2019, with WPC, and the new contest has attracted entries from around the world. The final shortlist featured 18 recent works from countries including Australia, Austria and Belgium.
Parkinsong CEO Gerald Ganglbauer said the Parkinsong Contest was launched for 2026 because: “I had done duets/awards and blues/grants, so it was time to try something new.”
Votes were gathered via ‘likes’ on each entry’s YouTube video. The successful entries will feature in a professionally produced album, and a show at World Parkinson Congress in Phoenix, Arizona in May 2026.
‘Catchy, feel-good tune’
Ganglbauer told Parkinson’s Life: “Make yourself comfortable in front of your big screen smart TV and watch the playlist. What you will see is of the highest quality and creativity. My favorites are René van Helsdingen and David Sangster’s animation videos.”
“Climb This Mountain is a feel-good clip that reminds of The Sound of Music,” he said of the winning entry. “Cowboys don’t cry, and Rob has a gentle voice. He is a good man as well as one loving his family. We would want him as our son. The tune is catchy too.”

Parkinsong Contest winner ‘Climb This Mountain’, by Rob Georg and Kristin K. Smith
He had a hard grip on the reins As he led me up the Rocky Mountains Singing all the way Na na na na na na
My daddy never was afraid He never lost his balance Never let me stray Na na na na na na
Pop Then one night When he and I were drinkin‘ His hands they started shakin‘ And I knew he would never be the same And I promised him that I would take the reigns
We’ll climb this mountain Just like we used to We’ll cross the river This time I’ll pull you through Though life is rocky And your grip is slippin‘ We’ll climb this mountain We’ll climb this mountain
We’ve had some hard years But some good days And I hold on tight To every word that he says Thought we lost him once or twice But somehow he comes back to life Even though it’s getting harder to fight
We’ll climb this mountain Just like we used to We’ll cross the river This time I’ll pull you through Though life is rocky And your grip is slippin‘ We’ll climb this mountain
Even if the earth is shaking Under your feet Trying to knock you to the ground I’ll be making sure you’re steady Hold on to me You can never keep a good man down
INSTRUMENTAL
We’ll climb this mountain Just like we used to We’ll cross the river And this time I’ll pull you through Though life is rocky And your grip is slippin‘ We’ll climb this mountain We’ll climb this mountain
And I sing for him Na na na na na na Na na na na na na Na na na na na na na Na na na na na na Na na na na na na Na na na na na na na
Rob Georg’s ‘Climb This Mountain’ Wins the 2026 Parkinsong Contest: A Story of Legacy and Triumph
December 24, 2025 7 Mins Read
In a touching moment of connection, Rob Georg’s winning song at the Parkinsong contest carries a deeply personal message about resilience and legacy.
When Rob Georg received an unexpected email notifying him that his song “Climb This Mountain” had won the 2026 Parkinsong contest, he couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed with emotion. This wasn’t just any victory, it was a moment that intertwined his personal story with a global movement. The song, written for his father during his battle with Parkinson’s disease, had been entered into the contest without his knowledge. And yet, it was his father’s spirit and legacy that ultimately propelled the song to triumph.
The Parkinsong contest, organized by Gerald Ganglbauer, seeks to amplify voices through music, offering a platform for artists whose works explore the Parkinson’s experience. Since its inception in 2019, Parkinsong has become a beacon for artists and individuals to share their stories through the power of song. This year, entries flooded in from across the globe, with 18 songs selected for the final shortlist from countries such as Australia, Austria, and Belgium. The contest was especially close to the heart of Parkinsong’s CEO, Gerald Ganglbauer, who remarked that the contest was a natural progression for the organization, built upon his previous experience with duets, awards, and grants.
The rules of the contest were simple: votes were cast through likes on YouTube videos of the submissions. In a testament to the emotional power of “Climb This Mountain,” the song quickly captured the hearts of voters, garnering enough support to claim the top spot. Now, Rob Georg’s song will be featured in a professionally produced album and performed live at the 2026 World Parkinson Congress in Phoenix, Arizona.
Recent Award Recognition
In addition to his Parkinsong contest victory, Rob Georg has recently been honored as the “Best Singer-Songwriter for Parkinson’s Awareness in the United States of 2025”. This prestigious recognition was announced on BestofBestReview.com, a leading authority in the music industry. The award underscores Georg’s significant contributions to raising awareness for Parkinson’s disease through his music, and it serves as a testament to his unwavering commitment to the cause. You can read more about this award and his recognition onBestofBestReview.com.
A Song Born from Love and Loss
“Climb This Mountain” was more than just a song for Rob Georg, it was a love letter to his father, a man who had fought a valiant battle against Parkinson’s disease. Georg explained that he wrote the song together with his producer Kristin K. Smith during one of his father’s hardest moments, pouring his heart into each lyric and note. The song speaks of strength, resilience, and the power of love in the face of adversity. For Georg, the song was a way to cope with the emotional toll of watching his father battle the disease, and it became a piece of his soul captured in music.
What makes this victory even more remarkable is that Georg had never submitted the song to the contest. In a twist of fate, someone, perhaps a fellow patient, a caregiver, or even his father’s spirit, had entered the song on his behalf. Georg’s reaction was a mix of disbelief and awe. “Maybe a patient who’s fighting that same battle? Maybe a caregiver who recognized the truth in that song? Maybe a Dad who still moves mountains in ways I’ll never fully understand?” he mused. Whoever had submitted the song, it was clear that “Climb This Mountain” had struck a chord with a wide audience, resonating deeply with those who have experienced the challenges of Parkinson’s firsthand.
A Celebration of Resilience and Unity
The Parkinsong contest is not just a competition; it is a celebration of resilience, a platform for those whose lives have been touched by Parkinson’s disease to share their stories and connect. The contest’s ability to bring together a global community of artists, patients, caregivers, and advocates is a testament to the power of music to heal and unite. Georg’s victory is emblematic of this spirit of collaboration, and it shines a spotlight on the strength of the Parkinson’s community, which continues to fight together with unwavering determination.
Ganglbauer, the CEO of Parkinsong, spoke fondly of the contest and the exceptional quality of submissions. He mentioned that his personal favorite was the animation video of another entry by René van Helsdingen, calling it “the highest quality and creativity.” He went on to describe “Climb This Mountain” as a “catchy, feel-good tune” reminiscent of “The Sound of Music.” He praised Rob Georg for his gentle voice and likable personality, calling him someone they would “want as our son.” For Ganglbauer, this contest was not just about music; it was about honoring the stories of people living with Parkinson’s disease.
The Power of Music to Tell a Story
For Georg, the victory means more than just recognition; it is a way to carry his father’s legacy forward. Each listen, each vote, and each person touched by the song is a tribute to his father’s fight. “With every listen, every vote, every heart touched… it all carries my Dad’s legacy and his story forward,” Georg reflected. It’s a message of love and remembrance, a testament to the unbreakable bond between father and son.
This is the miracle of art, it takes the pain and love of one person’s life and transforms it into something that can resonate with others. “Climb This Mountain” is more than just a song; it is an anthem for anyone who has faced hardship, who has lost a loved one, or who is battling their own struggles. Its uplifting melody and heartfelt lyrics offer hope and comfort, reminding listeners that no mountain is too steep to climb, no journey too difficult to endure.
A Momentous Year for Rob Georg

It is a moment that will carry him forward as he continues to share his music with the world and support the Parkinson’s community.
For Georg, this contest win is just the beginning. He plans to continue his mission to create music that inspires, uplifts, and connects.

The Path to the Parkinsong Victory
The Parkinsong Contest, which was launched in 2025 by Gerald Ganglbauer, member of the World Parkinson Disease Coalition (WPC), drew entries from various countries, including Australia, Austria, and Belgium. The competition’s format was innovative in that it used YouTube voting to determine the winners, with votes cast through “likes” on each song’s music video. Rob Georg’s “Climb This Mountain” captured the hearts of listeners worldwide, standing out among the 18 finalists selected from hundreds of entries.
A Song of Personal Significance
“Climb This Mountain” is not just a catchy tune; it is a deeply personal work for Georg. Written for his father during his hardest battle with Parkinson’s disease, the song is an emotional tribute to the strength and resilience of those facing the disease. Georg, who has often used his music as a way to process life’s challenges, shared a deeply personal experience in the following statement:
„The song was written during a time when I felt that my dad was fighting a battle beyond what words could express. Winning this competition feels like his legacy is continuing, and that means the world to me. It’s one of those moments where you feel connected to something larger than yourself, a part of the universe’s plan.”

The contest also featured an animated video by René van Helsdingen, which was among Ganglbauer’s personal favorites for its creative interpretation of the song.
A Moment That Defies Explanation
Rob Georg shared the story of how “Climb This Mountain” came to be submitted to the Parkinsong contest. Remarkably, he had never personally submitted the song to the competition. In an emotional reflection on his Facebook page, Georg wrote:
„I wasn’t ready for what the universe dropped on me this week, giving me goosebumps writing this… here’s the crazy, fantastic, weird story of me feeling my Dad tremendously close this week! The kind of close that makes you stop in the cold morning air and just breathe him in, the kind of close you feel when a horse lifts its head and looks past you, like it sees someone you can’t. And then, out of nowhere, this email arrives… telling me ‘Climb This Mountain’ won the global Parkinsong competition.”
Georg went on to express his gratitude for the support and love the song has received from listeners around the world, adding, “Every listen, every vote, every heart touched… it all carries my dad’s legacy forward.”
The World Parkinson Congress
