Less Noise. More Beauty.

 

Beauty, nature, and the arts restore what the world is draining.

Come make something beautiful with me ~ one park at a time!

Hi, I'm Vanessa
 

I am a violinist creating cinematic films in the National Parks. This includes commissioning works written for violin, creating a professional audio recording, and then filming a music video of each piece in its prospective National Park.

The project encourages innovative interactions between music, art, and nature, providing a platform for creative collaboration between newly written compositions and the beauty of the National Parks.

I'm also the host for the Nature Vault, the collaborative, behind-the-scenes community that helps bring the music videos to life!

“Vanessa has a rare gift for bringing people together to make something bigger than any one person. National Park Compositions isn’t just beautiful—it’s collaborative, thoughtful, and full of heart. You can feel the care that goes into every creative decision. It’s inspiring to witness and a privilege to be connected to.”

About Vanessa 

 Vanessa retired from orchestral playing after 25 years to spend her nights and weekends, that used to be filled with rehearsals and concerts to instead work on the National Park Compositions Project.  She couldn't be happier with her decision and is enjoying every minute!

With Reno as her base, in her spare time Vanessa enjoys driving scenic roads, visiting National parks, and hiking in the beautiful Sierra Nevada mountains.
