Doesn’t it feel like we just went through a fast forward? Next thing we know, we’ll all be singing Auld Lang Syne again! Speaking of which, I hope your holidays were as festive as mine, but now what? For me, it’s time to get my students ready for the Winter Share The Music Day where the kids will play songs from their lesson books for each other and their proud parents. Meanwhile, I need to be picking out a challenging recital piece for each student to be mastered, memorized, and performed at he formal Annual Spring Recital. In my spare time (haha), I’m getting some performance videos ready to go up on my website, and also looking forward to singing a couple of my inspirational originals at a benefit on Sat. Jan. 28, 7:30 pm, Home of Truth Spiritual Center, 1300 Grand St., Alameda. Looks like 2016 is already fading in the rear view mirror……

Sundays Are “Event-Full” this Month!
ByCynthiaI’ve been asked to tell my story at the Unity Castro Valley 10:30 church service this coming Sunday 9/9.

Actually, I’m sure it will be fine if I ask Spirit to speak through me, and remember that…
Time
ByCynthiaWhoa! 2018. Seriously? Sometimes it feels like I’m being pole vaulted through time. There’s never enough of it. The older I get the more important it feels not to fritter any of it away. Precious stuff it is, and easy to get stressed out trying to squeeze in everything I want to do. Funny thing…
“Trick-ling”
ByCynthiaMemories of Halloween come “trick-ling” back to me this time of year. My family lived in a small town where traditional Trick-or-Treat was entirely safe. I especially liked going to the Eminheisers’ house where we were invited in to see the extravagant decorations (nothing to “freak-out” little children in those days). The grand tour ended…
Setting My Jazz Self Loose!
ByCynthiaHardly ever (almost never) get out to hear live music because I’m too busy making my own. It’s no secret that I have a deep passion for writing songs, recording, and singing professionally on stage. For some time now, I’ve been performing/recording inspirational originals. Suddenly, and out of nowhere, the jazz bug has bitten me…
