About Me

It is said that the purpose of life is to bring Consiousness to this planet, with each person having a special way of doing so.For LeNORA, that special way is through music.Taking popular mainstream music and a 108 yr old violin and bringing sweet melodic sounds to the public is her way of connecting to everything around her.It has become much more than making a living, it has become a way of getting to know people, getting to know nature, getting to know herself. ************************************************************ *** ************************************************************ *** ************************************************************ *** LeNORA Faye and her 108yr old violin make a very enthralling couple. Playing music that ranges from the Beatles to Disney and pop classics, the rich tones of the violin and LeNORA's appetite for great music hold audiences in awe.LeNORA has evolved her career from violin instructor to full time musician. Taking her love of popular music and the violin, she has parlayed this into a sucessful career of entertaining people of all ages.She plays events where quality entertaining background music is needed. Extensive repertoire, an infectious personality and the ability to improvise both musically and comedic, LeNORA Faye is a must have.Three years ago, at the urging of a friend, LeNORA began busking in Calgary, AB. The experience lead to many summer days in the sun, entertaining the public and building her skills interacting with audiences. She now travels each summer to play in various locations including Stanley Park Vancouver, White Rock BC and Edmonton AB for the Fringe Festival. LeNORA also performs for private functions such as anniversary parties, weddings, corporate dinners and cocktail parties.**************Passionate about music and always committed to entertain, LeNORA is taking in all the opportunities to explore her dreams and meet new people. Playing an assortment of music that connects people of all walks of life and that places the violin in a different light, LeNORA Faye and her violin are a unique experience.********************
