		<title>Shine on!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s risky business, preparing for a Spring concert in these northern climes. Trying to schedule regular rehearsals in February and March risks the chance of foul weather. Sure enough, this Spring rehearsal season we had to cancel two consecutive Tuesday rehearsals because of snow, ice and sleet! For many amateur groups, this would be deadly, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes I am asked, as the director of an all-women&#8217;s chorus in a relatively remote, semi-rural section of New England, USA, what in the world we think we are doing to sing songs from Africa, Japan, Israel, Palestine, Cuba, etc. Our group consists of mostly Caucasian, mostly middle-class American women, who are relatively well-educated and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Got those Winter Blues</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[display_podcast]
It&#8217;s Winter. The holidays are over, and many of us retreat into hibernation. Some of us are very much affected by the cold and the dark. Seasonal Affective Disorder is a very real form of depression that can be helped with light therapy, exercise, and even drugs. But there&#8217;s another very helpful form of therapy, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Animaterra&#8217;s Summer Sings&#8230;and other things</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since Allison is busy building her new home this summer, I wanted to write more on what it means to be an Animaterran.  And, talk about opportunities in our Monadnock-area community: our summer sings and the Pathway Singers.
