Vicki's Music Room

Music ignites life yet soothes the soul. It can trigger an emotion upon hearing that first note or chord. Music can take you back to a particular moment in time and allows you to lose yourself in that memory.



Music defines who you are by your personal tastes and preferences. Everyone loves music. Everyone needs music. I know I do.



I invite you now to get comfortable in my music room. I want to share with you something very intimate and personal to me, my favourite music. ~Enjoy~!

That is actually easy for me to answer!
