One sheet – Heart Strings

Heart Strings is my official debut CD! It is a collection of twelve musical compositions for stringed instruments and small group ensembles that weaves together the romantic and gentle melodies of multiple stringed instruments creating a soothing and unique sound. These lush arrangements make for a pleasing ambiance.

After a long day at work, Heart Strings offers a quiet and romantic musical experience. Truly, music to soothe your soul!
