My dreams are songs I play....
Introduced to music on such instruments as accordion and flute,
Karen Carpenter finally chose drums then voice as the vehicles for
conveying her extraordinary musical talents. She simultaneously
developed as well as perfected her skill on both, reaching a level
that not only helped to give her and her brother's duo
"Carpenters" a professional start, but propelled it to the
very top of the recording and entertainment industry. There they
stayed for almost a decade. Sadly, she left us while in the midst of
exploring new musical ventures and venues. But not before earning
worldwide recognition as indisputably one the century's greatest,
most memorable singers. Hers is a rich legacy that will continue to
bring warmth and joy into the lives of countless others long, long
after this author has gone.
