Hello Michael,

I think that the Christmas album is a great thing! I would like to add a song if it is still OK. The song is 'I Am So Glad When Christmas Comes'. Could you state that the artist is by Hymnopolis.

Thanks!

We're over half way to the closing date for entries now but there's still plenty of time with five months left to prepare a song.

I've prepared my score in Finale and have now moved into Sonar ready to work on the performance there. Things are looking good but I've come up against a hitch. When I get over this hurdle there's still much to do.

I'm wondering how other folk are getting on with their song. Have you started yours yet and what stage are you at? I hope other contributors will call by and let us know what stage you're at and how it's going.
