New Year’s Eve fireworks over my hometown, Philadelphia

So many successes in 2013! So many good times, so much music, so much fun. This has been quite a full year for me and All Around This World. Even just in the last few months there have been advances galore, like

— the launch of this website. oh happy day!
— the release of All Around This World: Latin America and the AATW: Latin America Musical Map
— the recording of two CDs jam-packed with AATW’s African songs (the songs are being mixed right now and the digital release is scheduled for January) and the tracking for AATW: South and Central Asia
— A wild and wacky 24 hour music class marathon
a successful crowdfunding campaign! More about that to come.

I really hope you had a wonderful year. I’m optimistic for 2014 and hope you are too. Here’s to a happy, healthy and satisfying 2014.
