A lot to be said for 2011, big changes were made and my life is continuing to take off in exciting directions. The newest arrangement of "A Letter Home" with full orchestra and children's choir is almost complete! It should be finished soon and I can't wait to share it with you all!<br /><br />As the year comes to a close, I reflect on all the wonderful things I feel blessed and lucky to have in my life. My wonderful friends and family that I cannot live without and of course the powerful gift of music. So, I'm posing a challenge to you...music is about sharing and I ask that you share it with friends and family that might not have heard my songs or even know who I am. My wish is to spread the love of music as far as I can and not just me but artists that I love as well that may be unknown in this great big world of music. Do you think you can do that? I think you can. Thank you all for listening and being an active participant in my journey. Happy Holidays and an even happier New Year! 2012 will be epic...love you all!<br /><br />Gina<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3744570045798829564-1222260623320578694?l=ginagonzalezmusic.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Gina Gonzalezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11328448603185347647noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3744570045798829564.post-78648841307445623712011-10-19T22:18:00.000-07:002011-10-19T22:18:57.566-07:00Shows, shows and more showsSo I play some regular shows about once a month.
