Old Art Song 1983 rescued from damaged cassette Art on Piano Vocal, Jeff Sellars on Drums, Preston Dunlap on guitars, Bill Boswell on bass. I lost all my reel to reel masters, scores, and mixes in a storage unit flood decades ago. Bruce Balentine found a cassette of rough mixes of a few tunes. It is all that has survived.

“Thrive” focuses on one woman’s experience of being diagnosed and treated for breast cancer. Through music, dance, comedy, and theatrical fantasy, the audience learns that having cancer can be about savoring being alive rather than being ill. Life truly is grand.
