Lippa's Raise the Roof Clip

6/14/2013

Here is a clip from my recital in 2007.  Andrew Lippa is one of my favorite broadway composers. You can hear his work in The Wild Party, You're A Goodman Charlie Brown, and Addams Family. He has a away of combining jazz, pop, and classic musical theater style and making it very singable.  His songs are challenging, yet somehow perfectly placed in the singer's voice.

Friendlier Song

My sister thinks I should post a friendly song up for parents, but since I'm awful at playing uptempo's and singing at the same time, I am posting another ballad.  Need a wedding singer? ;-)

You will not believe how long it has taken me to get to this point in creating my very first website!  Picking a keyboard for the background alone took me days.   As modest and barebones that it is, I am very proud.

Some of my closest friends know that I recently quit my 8-5 job in sales and decided to go back to what I love -music.  I've been blessed with a career in performing and am being patient in the next steps, which I believe are teaching and encouraging others in their musical talent.  With the help of my friends and network, I have been busy with music directing in the educational field. I recently accompanied and music conducted Mount Rainier High School's production of 9 to 5 and will be music directing for KIDStage at Village Theatre this summer.  Things are slowly coming around.  A friend of a friend even set up my domain for me!  Thanks, David Shim!  Attached are a few unplugged videos since I know many of you have never seen/heard me perform. Thanks for stopping by!
