Emily West Creates Music With Patients At Children’s Hospital

Capitol Nashville’s Emily West made some of the sweetest music of all last week when she met with kids at Vanderbilt’s Monroe Carroll Jr. Children’s Hospital in Nashville. Emily took part in the Lollipop Theater Network’s Rhythm of Hope event which is an interactive music program for pediatric patients to ‘create their own songs while learning the building blocks of music.’ After visiting with the children, Emily performed alongside the children the song that they had created earlier in the day. Emily reflects “Those kids are angels; it was such a sweet relief to be around them. Smiling, laughing, making loud drum sounds with them….it was all just sweet for the soul. I intend to spend as much time with these kids as much as I can.”

Kudos to Emily for taking the time out for these special kids!
