"Who Doesn't Love a Showtune?"

Susan Lappin, Mike Powers, Katie James, Melisa Skwor, Jordan Peterson

This was the program/concert presented at the Portage Center for the Arts on January 18, 2014.  What a great cast of singers! I hope we can repeat the show in Baraboo.

Wisconsin Singers

I filled in for Connie Burton tonight.  She was scheduled to accompany the JYMS Choir directed by Mrs. Harmony Klingenmeyer.  Connie's daughter, Emily, delivered a baby girl today!  I was happy to fill in for Mrs. Burton.  I played 3 songs:  "California Dreamin'", "When Johnny Comes Marching Home", and "I Won't Grow Up."  Thank you, Mrs. Gunnell, for turning pages for me.  They JYMS Choir was one of the opening acts for "The Wisconsin Singers."  Click on the link below:

A new beginning.

It's been some time since I've written.  Sorry about that!  

Let's get the new year started with some new posts.  

Max and I had a fantastic trip to Christchurch, New Zealand in August 2013.  Scott Lappin and his wife, Gayle, have lived there since 2011.  This picture is from our first day there.  No worries:  I will post more great pictures soon. 

Kermit and I went to see "The Muppet Christmas" Sunday afternoon, December 23 with my son Ben and his girlfriend Mary.  We had a grand time!  "God bless us, everyone!"

Vivaldi: Gloria

Ms. Lappin is in Milwaukee, chaperoning the Baraboo High School Chamber Choir as they prepare to present Vivaldi's Gloria tomorrow at 10:30 am. They are one of four select choirs from the state of Wisconsin to perform with The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra. These pictures show their journey. No photos can be taken during the final performance. You just have to be there and enjoy the music. Bravo!
