Music Box, a newly released CD from song writer Mary Kaye, is one of those wonderful discoveries that took me by surprise.
The first song on Music Box, Under the Moon, made me think, “This is what Sarah Mclachlan might [...]

Marcome is a Canadian New Age music artist with four albums under her belt.
River of Soul is her newest release, boasting a captivating blend of New Age, Latin, Middle-Eastern, jazz and African beats. My first thought was “world music”; I could also compare it to the gentle soundtrack of a film.

When I got excited about dyeing our own play silks, some people asked, “What do you do with them?”
Usually I say something like, “They are great for open ended play! They can be capes, a “camp fire”, a doll blanket, a “river”, or anything the child can imagine!”
Maybe that answer wasn’t the complete truth.
Here is [...]

I love the “classic” artists from Motown records.
Think of Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye; fabulous voices with amazing range, accompanied by contagious beats.
Corneille Nyungura is a new artist on Motown, but he isn’t new to the music world.
Corneille has an impressive biography and many previous career accolades.
Corneille Nyungura was born in 1977 in Germany, [...]

I’m fairly positive that when I was a child I had no inkling of what “scatting” was, at least in how it related to music. My preschooler is lucky; he has been scatting all of his short live, and now that we have the Scat Like That: A Musical Word Odyssey Oppenheim Toy Porfolio Award-winning [...]

Reading to my children is, to me, one of the perks of parenting. You get to sit close to your little one, put your arm around them, and they hang on your every word, sitting perfectly still (for a minute).
