   About LaTonya Peoples
I was born and raised in Topeka, Kansas. I began taking violin lessons at the age of five. At the age of sixteen I became a certified Suzuki Violin Instructor giving private lessons. I graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Music Therapy from Howard University in May of 1994. I moved to Atlanta, Georgia in April of 1995 to pursue a career in Music Therapy, Performance, and Private Violin Instruction. I also have classroom teaching experience as an Orchestra Director and a Special Education Paraprofessional in the Clayton County Public School System. I have worked with several populations including Special Education, AIDS and Psychiatric Patients. I am also a Professional Performing/Recording Violinist and Vocalist. I have professional experience performing solo, and with ensembles, throughout the United States as a Violinist, Vocalist, Percussionist, and Songwriter. I have performed for several organizations including ZAMI, Charis Books, The Atlanta Lesbian Cancer Initiative, and The Feminist Womens Health Center. I toured the 2005 and 2006 seasons with UniverSoul Circus, visiting 26 major cities, as a featured Violinist and Vocalist. I was a featured performer with the LA Women's Fest in 2006. The show aired on national television in January 2007 on the LOGO channel. I can be heard as a Violinist on CDs recorded by Doria Roberts and Left Eye Productions/TLC. I am also the owner and operator of the Lpeop Music and Recording Studio. In my studio I have recorded and produced four CDs displaying my wide range in styles of music. Styles include Original Music, Jazz, Rock, Spirituals, and Folk. I have given workshops and in-services on Songwriting, Jazz Improvisation and Music Therapy for The Georgia Music Therapy Association and The Suzuki Association of the Americas. I have performed in ensembles opening for Gladys Knight, Michelle NDegeocello, Angelique Kidjo, and Alice Walker. Places performed include The Smithsonian Institution, Howard University w/The Uptown String Quartet, Emory University, Carter Baron Theater, Wolf Trap Theater w/Keter Betts, and The Variety Playhouse. I have been featured on BETs Jazz Central program with Hue, a Jazz Trio. I have also been heard on National Public Radio's Wade in The Water Series featuring Sweet Honey In The Rock.

Happy Valentine's Day! Hope you're enjoying yours so far! In America, the pilgrims used to sent confections, such as sugar wafers, marzipan, sweetmeats and sugar plums, to their affianced. Lot of value was placed on these gifts because they included what was then a rare product, sugar. After the late 1800's, beet sugar became widely used and more available, and sweet gifts continued to be cherished and enjoyed. Valentines Day Facts from mydearvalentine.com.
