“It is truly amazing how music can have a positive impact in our lives. It is more amazing to see children engaged in learning music, its history and its power. Both my children and I have benefited greatly from Desert Sounds, their programs and their instructors.  My children are very grateful for the opportunity to borrow an instrument that they can keep with them to use at school and at home.  This is their first year playing an instrument and I can see how music has opened their creativity to a new level which they are excited to explore.” Alma Vazquez
