Product Description
In January 2010, composer Tapio Sayppo was contacted by a 17-year-old schoolgirl named Sonia Zindoga in Helsinki, Finland. She had written two sets of lyrics, "Unbroken Heart" and "Baby, That's Okay". She wanted Tapio to create the music for the two songs. After meeting her in Herttoniemi, Helsinki, Sayppo accepted the job. He then reviewed and edited the cute lyrics, wrote the music for the songs and played and recorded the instruments. Next, during several lengthy sessions, he taught Sonia to sings the songs. After all that, Tapio started recording her singing.
When all the recording was done, Mr Sayppo edited, mixed and mastered the material and finished the lead sheet music for the songs (both available here). Then he designed the CD covers and made the CD discs for Sonia. She took them also to her country of origin (not Finland), and was treated there like a star. Happy end.
