More importantly, won’t you please join us for an enchanting trip down memory lane as we call them back to us to tell their stories, ensuring they’ll never be lost in the mists of time? You’ll love these brave and beautiful souls, as you share their experiences back in the days when little girls were not encouraged to play violin. After all, who among us hasn’t felt like the odd one out, the person interested in trying something different, in going where they didn’t exactly fit in? Ribbons & Bows… a Podcast Series with accompanying downloadable CD release from Elfenworks Productions, LLC, expected in 2018.
