2020: Wow. It has been interesting. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed our daily lives in more ways than imaginable. Earlier this year, the logistics of navigating full time work, virtual schooling, and daily life during a pandemic caused my music activities to take a back seat while I shifted my focus to the “new normal” with the family. I have maintained an extremely small roster of existing voice students for virtual lessons and I am praying for my friends who are full time musicians/teachers/otherwise involved in performing arts during this difficult time. The bright side: We’re baaaack – just not in person (yet)! In the coming days, we will be sharing some great content of old and new performance videos. Also, in the new year, I will have the capacity to add 2 lesson slots to my roster: Saturdays at 10:00 AM and Sundays at 2:00 PM. All lessons will be taught live but virtually, via Zoom, until further notice. If you would like a weekly time slot, please PM me for more info. This holiday season, prayerfully consider taking action to . Go to https://www.saveourstages.com/ . HAPPY HOLIDAYS, STAY SAFE, AND ! LOVE, MELISSA
