Cecilia
"Let me introduce myself. I am Cecilia Gniewek Brauer, pianist, teacher, associate member of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, and an avid player of a very rare and unusual instrument known as the Armonica. Here at my web site, you will find much useful information about this most beautiful instrument and its inventor Benjamin Franklin. Listen to some samples of the Armonica from a rare and unique Christmas CD "The Angelic Sounds of Christmas." I have provided you with links to other sites about Franklin and the Armonica.

I hope you find this site interesting and useful. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to e-mail me at benfranklin1706@webtv.net

Sincerely,

Cecilia Brauer
