Ahh December!

Amid the backdrop of downtown Seattle, and yes!! I'm definitely a football fan in December and a Seahawk season ticket holder. How does this connect with my music?

Coming to these games was the initial inspiration behind the music and lyrics of my song, Interurban Fanfare https://www.alphasongs.net/amp-112

This last Sunday had a drone show at halftime which ended up being the best part of the game (we lost) but I left early to attend a wonderful holiday concert with my composing teacher, John Muehleisen. Last week, I was singing in another holiday concert with the Kirkland Choral Society and it was also wonderful. My holiday spirit is musically amped up despite challenges and changes this year that have been difficult. I'm ok right now.

I managed to get away to the ocean for a couple days and hit some wild coastal weather. A little scary with King tides flooding things on the coast. Now I'm back and back to Alphasongs. The rest of this year continues to involve planning and implementing social media changes and new song ideas. I'll try to get a couple more posts a Christmas and Hanukah approach. Until then, stay safe and happy this week. Matthew
