+ Senior Alexis Belis proves that playing the harp and studying ancient civilization are bringers of happiness

By MIKE VANEGAS Scene Editor

or the past three years, a unique musician has Fechoed the willowy sounds of the harp throughout Saint Mary's and Notre Dame, successfully transform­ ing an artistic hobhy into a respectable philosophy of happiness. Alexis Belis, a senior in Lyons Hall, is a pleasant young woman who simply glows with a contentment concerning the life she chose, as a student, as a harpist and as a scholar. With a busy 21 years already behind her, Belis is now planning for a future just as busy and just as satisfying.

Foundation of music and chocolate Though Belis was born in Morgantown, W. Va., she identifies Hershey, Pa., the town with the obsession for chocolate, as her hometown. As the oldest of four chil­ dren, she grew up watching cartoons just like other kids, her favorites being "Space Ghost" and "Transformers." She also played tennis, took up skiing at the age of three and, in the great tradition of little girls, took piano lessons. By learning the piano, Belis continued a family musi­ cal tradition that would also keep her three siblings musically involved. · With a piano-playing father and a piano- and banjo­ playing mother, music clearly was an essen­ "People always ask [why I tial part of chose to play the harp] and I Belis' · early can't come with a very good years.

I never liked it very much, so I came up with the biggest, most impractical instrument for my parents." This, of course, was the harp. But Belis found some difficulty in jumpstarting her harp-playing career. Beginning at the late age "of 16, she first had to convince her parents that she was seri­ ous about playing the harp. Belis said that it took about a year until.she actually began taking lessons serious­ ly.
