Since I’ve been penned up for the last 30 hours or so, I decided to bring a different show than usual to you.

It’s a blizzard here in NYC!  They’re expecting about 20 inches of snow or more by the time it’s over!

So, let’s let the music follow, right?  Most of this music is soft & snowy, too.  But, some simply evokes the spirit of the day. A snow day!  Remember a “snow day?”

Enjoy!
