Philanthropist and singer-songwriter Dan Pallotta is marrying the two worlds of his life’s work with “All of Our Dreams,” taken from the recent Stephen Gyllenhaal-directed documentary, Uncharitable, which advocates for securing greater funding for the nonprofit sector.
This stately and cinematic song was produced by Pinar Toprak, known for her work producing grand scores for Marvel blockbuster films. A critical production decision was to have the song sung not just by Pallotta, but by nonprofit workers from around the world.
“It’s about having the grace to say no to old ways of thinking that no longer work, and to say yes to new ways of thinking that can work,” Pallotta explains of the song’s meaning. “Because that grace, or lack of it, is what’s standing between us and the world we really want — it’s what’s standing between us and all of our dreams.”

It took us seven years to make this movie and a lifetime for me to do the work that led to it. I started out trying to get a record deal and ended up doing decades of work in philanthropy. This song sees those two worlds come together in a way I would never have thought possible. – Dan Pallotta
