Afternoon Pop Up Music Presentation

 

Kendra Faye is a harpist, singer, and multi-instrumentalist, who finds much joy from seeing the transformative power of music. Music has taken her around the globe. To environments as varied as the Amazonian jungle and the hospital wards; it has taken her from teens struggling to overcome addiction to sharing the joy of new born baby; and finally, it has taken her to the bedside to help ease the fear of an illness or offering music to comfort the biggest of life’s transitions in her work with hospice. For Kendra, sharing the power of music has been both ecstatic and humbling; being both performer and witness; being both minstrel and student; learning from the Universal language of song that crosses borders and blends appreciation with wonder. The ways we sing, play and praise in devotion awakens the heart to experience more fully the healing, the pleasure, the celebration, and utilize the lessons from pain or sadness. She is grateful that her lifelong love of music reminds her of the power and beauty that we all are and how sound can help remind us of our inner beauty. Song speaks our stories. There is something sacred about deep listening and expression of song that our soul thirsts for. It soothes us, comforts us, and inspires us as we dance with life’s mystery.
