		<title>Make Your Garden Grow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While driving to work one day recently, I decided on a whim to listen to some recordings of my college choir concerts (c. 1989). One of the programs included a couple of pieces from Leonard Bernstein's <i>Candide</i>, arranged by our director, <a href="http://choralmag.com/October07/page.html">Dr. Robert Page</a>. As the second of these pieces began, I felt tears welling up and I had to stop and marvel at that for a moment. ]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Every Little Step&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This wonderful documentary is about the musical, <i>A Chorus Line.</i> It tells the history of making the original stage production and also follows the casting process for the latest Broadway revival. Fascinating - and surely a must for anyone considering a career in theater. It also speaks to everyone who does something because it is "their passion."  EVERY LITTLE STEP is in theaters now.  Go see it. ]]></description>

		<title>Music Stands/Posture</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My students tend to hunch over music placed on the table in front of the piano.  No more.  I found our music stands.  I've placed them at two heights - for shorter or taller singers.  Now, stand tall and look straight ahead when you sing.  It's better for breathing, singing and appearance.  ]]></description>

		<title>The Rush</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Something that came up recently during our weekly studio meeting (aka Sunday afternoon teatime after walking the dog), was the difference between working with students who are "serious" and "not serious," what that really means, and how to encourage talented students to consider becoming "serious." ]]></description>

		<title>A Dream Unrealized, But Not Forgotten</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Years ago, about twenty-five or thirty, I think, a small group of, at that time, current and former students sat in our family room in Bridgeport, Michigan and tossed around the idea of one day living and working in a shared a shared arts community.  It was referred to then as the “family mansion”.  We truly considered ourselves one large family and in many ways still do.]]></description>

		<title>Let&#8217;s discuss practicing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Your use of practice time between lessons can definitely influence "getting your money's worth."   You will make progress even if you rarely practice between lesson sessions, but you will get more for your money and get ahead more quickly if you make good use of your practice time.  Here are some thoughts.  ]]></description>
