As we brace ourselves for the impact of Hurricane Milton, a storm that is making history with its strength and path, I can't help but think about beauty of our beloved Florida. In my musical, Florida Christmas, the song "Florida, My Florida" plays a magical role—it’s the anthem that unites the creatures of the land, sky, and sea to save Florida from a devastating snowstorm (a little fiction that holds a lot of hope). Trying to keep some sanity during that challenging time I’ve created a new arrangement of "Florida, My Florida," with the wish that it brings some extra energy to protect our state. The song’s history and melody, originally set to the tune of "O Christmas Tree," are now intertwined with a hope that might help us weather the storm.
Music has the power to heal, to connect, and to energize us when we need it most.
Stay safe, Florida, and let’s stand strong through this hurricane.
