Metropolitan Opera Shop has just re-stocked 'Old McHandel.' It is a lovely book to celebrate Spring and a perfect gift for the new babies in your life or to perk up your little lamb's interest in music. We also sell direct but do appreciate our supporters in the fine arts. So thrilled that people are back in support of theatre.

Lascia Ch’io Pianga is an aria in Italian from the Handel opera 'Rinaldo.' It seems written for this Covid-19 crisis. ‘’I will weep forever. Free me from my chains.”

McHandel's Sweet Idea

Very pleased that the lovely Greyhound 'Indie' Bookstore in Berlin, MD ordered copies of "Old McHandel." It was so much fun to develop and present the musical program to accompany the readings.

I think this is my favorite spread in the book because I love cherry blossoms and I love hummingbirds!

Excited to publish "Old McHandel & His Musical Farm." So pleased that the Kennedy Center is carrying it, as well as Foxes Music and The Heifitz Institute, and the Library of Congress and Fairfax County Library will hold it in their collection. I even saw the Kindle for sale on the Amazon Japan site! Thanks to everyone in the community for their support. Bravo to John and Ben Castillo et al. Here's to selling out in the New Year! Still time to order for your young musician.

Happy Birthday to George Washington, perhaps our most iconic founding father from Virginia. Pictured is one of the first pieces I created for the Young Presidents' Organization shortly after arriving to the Mid-Atlantic region. I loved the die-cut cover and vellum overlay.
