“Part of the thrill of music seems to come from the release of endorphines, the powerful opiate-like chemicals produced in the brain that induce euphoria and relieve pain.”

"I've been spending a lot of time at Kaiser Walnut Creek for the past three weeks. The beautiful harp music offered by one of your musicians turned my whole day around. What a lovely kindness she offered to all within earshot. Life is made up of seemingly small things—it is made up of seconds and inches. Thanks so much for adding some beautiful notes to my 'seconds' today.”
