About Ribbons & Bows
An exciting new podcast series from Elfenworks Productions, LLC “Ribbons & Bows ~ American Women in Violin History” delves into the stories of dozens of pioneering American women who helped shape today’s robust violin scene. These are fabulous tales of perseverance, vision, and hope. Why has so little been said about them, in history books, until today? More importantly, won’t you please join us for an enchanting trip down memory lane as we call them back to us to tell their stories, ensuring they’ll never be lost in the mists of time? You’ll love these brave and beautiful souls, as you share their experiences back in the days when little girls were not encouraged to play violin. After all, who among us hasn’t felt like the odd one out, the person interested in trying something different, in going where they didn’t exactly fit in? Ribbons & Bows… a Podcast Series with accompanying downloadable CD release from Elfenworks Productions, LLC, expected in 2018.
