A long-time friend of mine is the mother of two lovely, intelligent young ladies. Sophia and Olivia are homeschooled, and I am ever in awe of their myriad interests and engaging conversations; outgoing personalities; zest for life and the selfless, humble kindheartedness they extend toward others—whether their fellow human-being or those of the four-legged variety. Sophia’s love for music and sharing it with others began when she was a child and, according to her website (which she developed, earning her a blue ribbon at the Minnesota State Fair), she “is passionate about sharing her musical skills and bringing the power of music to others.” I am incredibly proud of Sophia and her debut CD—a relaxing and peaceful blend of harp melodies which would benefit such places as nursing homes, animal shelters and daycares. From the thoughtful content on the CD jacket, to the compositions she performs, to the recording of each piece, Sophia is the consummate professional. Her talent will bless you.

Thank you for your kind comments, Chris. Sophia loves that she has a CD that she can share with others so they can hear harp music.
We were just at the humane society yesterday and Sophia was playing the harp for the animals there. There was one dog, Winnie, who was so scared when we went to get here. She just cowered in the corner and was scared walking down the hall to the room where Sophia was playing the harp.
Within a few minutes of listening to the music, Winnie started exploring the room, and kept coming back for reassurance. Eventually, she laid down so I could pet her while she listened to the music. She was calm and content after quite a few songs, and looked a lot better when she went back in the kennel.
When Sophia can see the impact of the music she plays on animals or people, she knows she needs to share it.
Thank you for spreading the word about her CD. Hopefully more people will purchase it so it can be shared with those who need it.
