The Beginning
Sounds of Life, is a contemporary family Christian
group. The family, consist of two boys and five girls, and parents, Deacon Al and Mary Calzada, from Port Lavaca, Texas. Victor,
(lead vocalist), singing with his sister's Flora, Rita, and Hope, recorded the Sounds Of Life CD, and two sisters, Cindy
and Pam, and brother Al Jr. also join in, from time to time.
The inspiration of Victor's calling, our parents, and
the Lords gifts soon led us to bigger and better opportunities. We continued to practice until we were ready to go out and
sing locally at all churches, revivals, conferences, school programs, and yes, finally our very own Sounds Of Life concert.
The Sounds of Life concerts consisted of two sold out shows on Saturday, May 10, at the Port Lavaca, Main Street
Theater. This concert created a spiritual direction the Calzada family would never forget. The birth of a Christian Spirit
that will bond us forever, not only has brothers and sisters, but also as best friends.
As time passed and we grew
older, we each went our separate ways. Miraculously, most of the members of Sounds Of Life ended up in Dallas, Texas. Although unaware of God's plan, in November 1995 a family
meeting was set. It was then we realized the purpose of being together again, to sing God’s blessings. Sounds Of Life
performed in Port Lavaca, Victoria, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, San Marcus, Corpus Christi, Rowlett, Plano, Lewisville,
for the Alzheimer’s Association of Dallas and The Texas State Fair, also in Dallas, Texas, and in more areas in Texas,
we can remember.
It's 2008 now and most of the Calzada girls have moved back home, to Port Lavaca, Texas. Victor
Angelo Calzada composes, writes and arranges, all of his sound tracks, at his home recording studio. Victor is also founder
and creator of Calzada Records, Sounds Of Life Productions, and A Christian Spirit Web Site, which is now published, and on
line, for the world to hear Gods blessing. Currently Victor is in Plano, Texas, working on his solo CD, called A Christian Spirit, and
a Samba De Amor CD, and is looking forward blessing the Christian Spirits of the world. For upcoming events in your area,
please check on page Upcoming Shows at A Christian Spirit web site.
Thank you for the memories, the blessings,
and the friendships we have made throughout our, (on and off again), 29 years of sings for you, our families, and our
Lord Jesus. May the Lord bless you every day as much as you have blessed us, with your love and dedication to our music.
