If she didn't, her music wouldn't flow and she wouldn't be in such a great groove. Thanks to her for sharing the love; her hard work and the gift she gives her listeners. Your article is very insightful. Thanks! What a talented young person who obviously has a beautiful soul. If she didn’t, her music wouldn’t flow and she wouldn’t be in such a great groove.

She inspires me to dig deeper in terms of expressing my music. I'm also impressed with the fact that she is an excellent sight reader as well as an accomplished technician. Also an excellent vocalist. What a breath of fresh talent! What an amazing story of an artist so young and innovative. She inspires me to dig deeper in terms of expressing my music.

Wow! What a talented young woman. I am elated to own a copy of her CD. I have been playing it nonstop since I purchased it. I played the cello for years and was a part of the Virginia youth orchestra. Listening to Esperanza causes me to rekindle the memories of those days of playing, although her music is much more hotter and more eclectic! Thanks for sharing ! Wow! What a talented young woman.

Stumbled across Esperanza in the iTunes Store a few months ago and loved her music as soon as I heard it. Now reading your masterful account of her backstory, I'm an even bigger fan. Been trying to awaken some of the courageous music inside me for a while now, and reading about other women who've been through a similar path is very encouraging. Thanks, as always, for the passion and honesty in your write-ups! I am sooooo thankful to have popped in this week and read this article.
