Synopsis: Amy’s world is a symphony of memories with her beloved Grandma Sophia, whose every gesture and word were melodies of warmth and love. From morning scents of lavender to evening tunes on her cherished violin, Sophia’s presence enveloped Amy in a comforting embrace. Teaching her granddaughter the art of the violin, Sophia passed down not just notes, but stories and emotions interwoven into a special tune – a tune that begins with lively crackles and ends with the joyful song of a bird. This musical bond becomes a lifeline for Amy, even as Sophia’s life draws to a gentle close. As Amy matures, she carries the legacy of Sophia’s violin into her own life, playing the cherished tune for her children and eventually her grandchildren. The music becomes a timeless thread, connecting generations, bringing comfort, joy, and a sense of continuity. Malcolm Richards crafts a poignant tale that resonates with anyone who has felt the profound bond of family and the enduring power of a simple melody.
