ROOM FOR LONOTES AT THE KENNEDY CENTER- AND BEYOND!!
We were thrilled and grateful that the prestigious Washington Chorus, under the extraordinary leadership of Dr. Eugene Rogers, added our song "Room" (beautifully arranged for chorus, brass, and keyboard by J. David Moore) to its 2022 Candlelight Christmas concert repertoire! Inspired by an encounter at the Kennedy Center itself, the song asks the question, "Who do we make room for in our lives - at holiday time and all year long?"
We were equally thrilled when the singers of the Gay Men's Chorus of Washington, under the stellar direction of Dr. Thea Kano, found Room in their hearts for a new arrangement of that same song the following Christmas season.
A recording of an earlier LoNotes arrangement can be found on our "Songs" page.

2019
PONZI IS HERE!
It's been a banner year for America's most famous conman. First, the debut of our full- length musical chronicling his life - a first reading at Alexandria Virginia's Nannie J. Lee Center in May, 2019. Then, in December, the release of the musical soundtrack CD nearly one hundred years to the day after he first devised his infamous scheme. As the anniversary of his downfall approaches (August 1920), will he get a second chance to tell his story in the theater? We're open to suggestions!!
