Funny Composers: A book by my very talented 9th grade classmate

December 15, 2009 12:08

 I knew her as Sho-mei Pelletier. We were once the same age and in the same grade but I grew older faster. She was a big inspiration to me. She played  the violin so well. (She also plays the Baritone Horn!) She is now a principal in the Dallas Symphony.

She is also a talented writer and artist.

Check out her new book at http://www.funnycomposers.com/
