I've had aspirations to write a musical for quite some time, but the question of what to make the musical about forever plagued me.
There is a need inside of me to write music, but without a strong subject matter as my compass, I would be wandering aimlessly.
I returned to the advice of experienced writers: write what you know - make it personal & finally one day... Eureka! My idea was born!
I don't know how ground-breaking this musical concept will be perceived, but hey, it's a start!
This afternoon I began jotting down song titles and lyrics to some tunes in my head & it felt really good! I will likely have to engage the services of our musical improv pianist to really help me flesh out the nitty gritty, and also help with the process of putting notes on the page, but I'm really excited about the prospect of this new process.
At this point I've decided that if I can't bring myself to Broadway, I'll bring Broadway to me!
