entertaining intended to promote healing and growth. Like learn and
share or; watch, perform and educate. At the very least, have some
enriched fun.
The Abused Ballet is an entire production. This is the piano part
of the entire symphonic score. A lot of hard work, dedication and
love went into this work. The pieces are dark, melodic, eery and
classical. With all of the parts it forms a masterpiece and with
one part it forms an adventure.
A collection of poetry on several subjects. Written between the
