Well, it seems like I’m on monthly update track. Let’s see if the new home page on my website inspires me to do some posts a little more frequently.

To summarize: this month has made me happy. June gave me four new harp students (all of them eagerly awesome). A seven year old student said, “you have a happy house!”

Of course, I knew that it also had something to do with the 10 feet of sidewalk chalk art leading up the walk that my daughter drew.

On Mother’s Day I played duets with my good friend, pianist Josh Rawlings at  Overlake Country Club. Josh is so talented and the gig was so much fun. He’s schooling me on how to read jazz charts. Now he’s touring this summer with the funky, soulful Allen Stone – awesome!

At the end of May, I played new music a la Debussy and Stravinsky, written by Hanna Benn and Evan Flory-Barnes at Century Ballroom for the 100th year anniversary of the Rite of Spring. It was another fabulous show with some of my favorite musicians in town to play with. And to think… life is this good and its only the beginning of summer!
