Donna O. Raphael Releases Tried So Hard, A Blend of Classical and World Music

Donna O. Raphael is originally from the Commonwealth of Dominica, a beautiful island in the Caribbean. Presently, she resides in Florida.

As far back as she can remember, music has always been in her life. She started taking music classes at age five, beginning with the recorder. When she graduated from that instrument, she went on to play flute, keyboard, and steel pan/drums. Growing up, she did numerous performances for audiences solo and as a group with her fellow musicians. She sat various theory and practical music exams, receiving awards for high scores in her music exams. She also traveled overseas to attend music camps to perfect her craft.

Donna graduated from Full Sail University with a Bachelor’s degree in Recording Arts on September 2012. She earned a perfect attendance award and a course director award in audio file management and documentation. She also won the mix competition in her sessions recording class and received a certificate for her accomplishment. Donna is also a past member of Grammy U.

Today, Donna has gotten more into the studio side of music production and she’s proud to say she’s still learning. Presently, she uses Logic Pro and Pro Tools, mainly to create her instrumentals and sounds. She’s passionate, motivated and multi-talented having the titles of Musician, Music Engineer and Composer.
