Flora Flirt

 Tune can be heard on Spotify, Pandora Plus, & is available in most digital music stores.  

Mackinac Island maples defy arboreal rules. Turn fluorescent orange & wildly shimmy to winds off Lake Huron.  All unite & boldly refuse to shed leaves.

Original tune composed & performed by Kitty Allen on pedal harp, flute, midi-keyboard, laptop & toothbrush.

I composed, performed & recorded this tune after a late fall visit to Mackinac Island in Michigan. Though I've visited & enjoyed trips to the island before, this adventure was exceptional and particularly inspiring. The foliage, while displaying all of the requisite colors, remained clinging to the trees even though it was late October.

A special thank you to Diane Sullivan for joining me on this thoroughly enjoyable excursion.
