Hello!

by admin on October 24, 2009

Welcome and thanks for visiting!

Recently, I had the fortunate opportunity to join the Beautiful Mind Ensemble in recording the sound track to the Korean TV Drama Life is Beautiful, which airs March 13- September 5, 2010. The members of BME are all so kind and gracious and it’s been a real pleasure to be included in this project!

Bella Sorella’s December 20, 2009 program was announced on KQED Radio’s ”The Do List.”  The concert itself had a wonderful turnout and we had a great time performing at the beautiful Cathedral Basilica!
