Kitt y Alone is the latest in series of captivating picture books, each based on a beloved songtale from the great American folk music heritage, and collected by John M. Feierabend. This beautifully illustrated version of Kitty Alone was conceived by illustrator Mina Echevarria, who suggested setting the song in the Appalachian Mountains and using a bobcat as the title character. Since they are rarely seen in the daytime, Appalachian locals refer to the bobcat as the “woods ghost.†Here the illustrations create the ghostly bobcat in the evening darkness of the forest encountering several delightful friends. Also notice the red thread that appears throughout.  Find it in the last picture…was it all just a dream? Like the other picture books in John M. Feierabend’s First Steps in Music series, Kitty Alone includes a description of the history of the song, the notation of the song, and a link to download the song sung by Jill Trinka at no cost.

Waterscape is a piece inspired by and intended to create images of lazy evenings on beautiful Lake Hartwell, located in the northwest Tri-County area of South Carolina (Oconee, Pickens, and Anderson Counties). The piece gives imagery of sunlight reflecting off the water as lake-goers enjoy fishing, boating, water skiing, tubing, or simply dangling their feet off of a dock into the water. The piece should have a languid, easy feel, never rushed, but driving.
