About the Author

Music has always been an important part of author Jane Moyer’s life. After laying a strong foundation in classical music by earning a Bachelor of Music degree, she expanded her musical life by exploring jazz and playing folk music out in the real world. Jane has played many musical roles — from formally-taught to self-taught music student, performer, teacher, arranger, accompanist, ensemble member, music spouse and parent. She’s learned to play ten different musical instruments and takes used instruments into her home as others might take in stray cats.
