"Billy" - the Video
The creation of a new song is the most supreme pleasure I have ever experienced, and music, through all times and years, has been my truest most loyal friend.
I am Sharon, singer/songwriter/composer/pianist from Tel-Aviv, Israel.I have been playing the piano, composing and singing since I can remember myself. Music has always been in my life. It has always been my life.In 1996 I have decided to persue musical education and attended HED College of Music in Tel-Aviv. I later moved to Dekalb, IL where I studied for a Master in Jazz Studies and was a featured vocalist of the world renown NIU Jazz Ensemble. It was in the USA that I recorded my first all-originals CD "The Song In Me".In 2004 I returned to Israel and have been living in Tel-Aviv since. Currently working on 2 new CDs - one in English and one in Hebrew.Thank you for visiting my space. I hope you'll enjoy my music and drop a line to say Hi...or more.
Hugs from the sunny land,
Sharon
