SOUNDS OF SERVICE
COMMUNITY MUSIC MAKING

Sounds of Service enhances quality of life and resiliency for military connected families, veterans, and service members through the power of music.

Sounds of Service offers music instruction and music therapy to military service members, veterans, and their families.

In-person or virtual sessions involve improvised music-making, lyric analysis, songwriting, singing, creative arts, guided relaxation to music, or adapted music lessons. Traditional instrument and songwriting lessons are also available and can be adapted to almost all disabilities.

“I’ve always had an affinity to appreciate music and what it is capable of. Thanks to the expertise and generosity of Resounding Joy’s music therapist Cory Woodrow, I’ve been afforded the unexpected gift of expression and introspection. Cory has provided unyielding motivation and support with joy and patience on a group of instruments I never would have considered. Resounding Joy’s ‘Semper Sound Drum Circle’ has been a fun and therapeutic experience that words alone cannot express. ā€
