Hello

I know it has been a while since I have interviewed a musician but I've got a terrific one coming up. And it will be an audio version! The man's name is Fred Barton and he is a composer, orchestrator and musical director on and off Broadway. Go to his website to learn more.... oh, and small tidbit, I went to high school with Fred at Lexington High School, MA.

My 11 year old daughter, mother, and I are leaving Friday morning to go to NYC and see a Broadway show.... Billy Elliot. Has anyone seen it? It is supposed to be amazing. The music is written by Elton John. Here is the website in case you'd like more info. This musical won the Tony Award for Best Musical in 2009!

UPCOMING CLASSES

Lots of new classes coming up. Check 'em out. I highly recommend the Blues classes as they are not offerred very often and the blues is the foundation for all popular music.
