Life is not a brief candle. It is a splendid torch to burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.

I love that!

Fun thing #2 - I thought it would be great to include ‘learning trax’ information on the site. I am often asked if I do learning trax of my arrangements, and I do not - but others do. It’s a wonderful service and can speed up the learning process for your chorus or quartet. One among them is my friend Kari Metzger. Kari has done learning trax for three of my arrangements: Tangerine, Believe and Where the Heck is Dixie. You can connect with her at kari@metzgers.ca

I think the next time I do an update on the site (well, the next time Brenda Johima does an update on the site!) we will have to create a ‘learning trax info’ page.

Ok - since one can never have too much fun…one more fun thing! Sent to me by my buddy Dave Pinhey. I’m not going to give away the surprise. Just click on the link below, and see for yourself.

HAPPY SPRING!!!!

Click on the link below. You will get a black page. Click your mouse anywhere and everywhere on the page and see what happens! Better yet, click and drag your mouse over the page … Enjoy!!

Hope all y’all have a wonderful time,“burning that torch brightly” today!

OK, trying again with that photo…! This is me and my daughter Jen in Manzanillo, Mexico in January. I love it because we both look so happy!

So - welcome to my newly updated website! Many, many thanks to long-time friend Brenda Johima for its creation, and for her patience and professionalism. You can find links to Brenda’s design and creativity websites elsewhere hereabouts.

For those of you looking for SATB arrangements - sadly, I am no longer distributing them. It’s a long story which boils down to this: it’s simply not economical to do it any more. I continue to write, but for the time being only for my acappella community chorus, Soundscape. Ha! Just until the ‘big bucks’ come along!

For those of you waiting for Take A Chance on Me to become available once more - it’s (argh!!) still in process. I think my next option is to re-clear it through SAI. Stay tuned for news on that front.

Meantime, please enjoy the sound clips on the site, and do use the links to pop out and visit those choruses and quartets that have recorded my arrangements. Almost all of the new clips were created by my friend, Anne Marteniuk. You can find out more about her on the Westcoast Harmony website ‘Directing Team’ page.

Well…I tried to upload a photo that is my current favourite just for fun … but it came out gigantic, so obviously I need some help with that! And that’s about enough adventuring - at least in this area - for today!
