Tomorrow is February. Thank God. January seemed to drift in, bringing with it - cold days, packing up Christmas, paying new bills and trying out new ways to organize old stuff. Well, last year's methods aren't working.. time for a change.
That 'change' came with a new computer .. I now operate on a PC with tons of memory. My original computer met with its demise in September.. with it.. all of what I deemed important - mailing lists, gig info, letters, song lists, photos.. [fortunately for me, there are numerous online sites on which, at least, my photos have been stored.]
My biggest gain with the computer, has been the CD/DVD burner. I have uploaded video performances of ANN MITCHELL JAZZ to the computer, edited them and added to my online profiles.
Back to February...
Valentine's concert [see my web] on the 13th with the trio. My fans submitted their valentine favs to include on the concert line up! My daughter has asked to sing a duet with me. I have to admit, the request came as a surprise for me. Kerri and I sang many a duet together before she attended college. During those years, singing with me was not beneficial to her .. she was 'studying opera now.' It's a treat to sing with her once again and I know that our friends will enjoy it too! We have chosen the perfect song ... sorry, not going to disclose that info yet.
Speaking of Kerri, she has been busy preparing for Grad school opera programs. She is a very dedicated, talented musician that would be an asset to any school. Two auditions remain......We're hoping and praying for the best opportunity!
