The T Shirt hack saga continues:

I acutally dig this one. Rie Yamaguchi-Borden I am pretty sure you did not approve of this design. If you had been involved it would have been way cooler.

Attention Jazz Friends: come one worthy constituent among you send me a Mp3 copy of "Light as a Feather" by Mr. Corea????

Just Downloaded DORICO – The Next-Generation Scoring Software

onwards and upwards....

I am starting a therapy/support group for Finale Music Notation Software Users. Thus begins our long journey to learn Dorico, which I am sure is very good, but oh vey... learning a whole new software package???

We will meet Wednesdays at 11 am, Woe is us!!!!

PS - What happens to all our old scores?

The Finale of Finale

Who knows who might sit in? Who knows what might happen?

Hello Everyone:

I hope your day is smashing today.

A quick note about First Name Basis at Via Veroli. Wanted to thank our great friend Kathleen Hart for her wonderful show last week. Kathleen truly lights up any room, all the time, 24/7.

Also wanted to thank Walter Palma Designs for starting the series again and giving American Popular Song Society a home in Yonkers every Wednesday night.

The week we feature another wonderful singer: Ben Cassara. Mr. Cassara is a very dignified singer, and after hearing him perform tonight, you will definitley feel more refined. He will be joined by Nicki Adams who is quite a treat in his own right.

See you there
