Solstice Time

Sunday night time stood still, the longest night has passed. Today will be a minute longer than yesterday, Winter has begun! Half of the longest nights still lie ahead.  Somehow the social bustle of holidays is balanced by the inward turning of hibernation, contemplation and recharging for a new year. It has been eventful and enlightening, and there is every reason to expect more adventure in the year to come.

Currently, variety and surprise rules:


Thu   Dec 24
7:00p


Divine Science Church
Denver, CO
Michael Stanwood, Virginia Anderson            Christmas Eve music service

Wed Dec 30

Jeff Jenkins' Piano Conversations

Thu Dec 31
9:00p

The Christmas Eve service at Divine Science Church has become a tradition for Michael and me, a rich variety of music is always the feature of the evening. I am honored to join Jeff Jenkins on his Wed night Conversation series, following the likes of Greg Gisbert and Kailin Yong. And a lovely blast from the past, Dan Sadowsky (Ophelia Swing, Pastor Mustard) has lured me to Snowmass for New Years eve.

Keep in mind the offerings from Dexofon Records for holiday giving and general good cheer! With 3 CDs collaborated together with Thiago de Mello, another recorded in Brazil and the recently remastered When Im Gone by our band the Forbears - Judy Roderick with special guest Dr John (4 stars in Downbeat Magazine) there is significant variety. If you are local, I will accomodate your Santa act, meet up with you, or whatever it takes. There are also a few CDs in local stores. In fact, Judy's CD is on the listening station in Bart's. Stop by there and give it a spin, even if you already have one! And need I mention iTunes, Amazon, CD Baby, Black & Read, Wax Trax, Albums on the Hill. All the above, and more, are also available (best of all) at www.dexofon.com 

Wishing you the best Christmas season,
Dexter
