Tina, Regula and Dechen, together with a group of 30 children presented the new album at a Press Conference on September 28 in Zurich, Switzerland. It started with the screening of the promotional movie, directed by Xaver Walser and narrated by Tina Turner, which explains the message behind the Beyond project. Tina explained in the Q&A session because the music is so modern, even people who are not religious will take over the message through the music. She also explained, that she will always continue to record music when something interesting comes along, like this project. At the end, all three ladies together with the children performed the song When You Sing on stage.
This song was also performed at two TV-Shows: On December 11 at the Swiss Sports Awards in Zurich, Switzerland and on December 17 at the Ein Herz für Kinder Gala in Berlin, Germany.
