Pearl Bailes took piano lessons as a child and played the oboe for a while, but later in life she says, "the harmonica chose me." She says when you play that little unique instrument, the sound really comes from your body and you just need to breathe.

She also says music builds community and if people can be open to one another's music, that can lead to understanding of other cultures and help bring us together.
