– May 2, 2012, The Record article by Valerie Hill – Reviving the oldtime singalong. Alfred Kunz’s Music Alive, Nith Valley Singers celebrate old favourites at local concerts. The German enclave in rural Saskatchewan where Alfred Kunz grew up was a place of tradition, a place where friends and family would gather to play musical instruments and sing German folk songs in a warm spirit of togetherness. Mama’s Old Songbook will feature many well-loved tunes and audience members are encouraged to dress comfortably country, then be ready to sing along with the combined choir and five other musicians. And as a special treat, Kunz invited well-known children’s performer Erick Traplin to MC the evening as well as perform.
– May 2012, conducted and directed a series of concerts with Music Alive and the Nith Valley Singers entitled Mama’s Old Songbook in Kitchener and New Hamburg with guest soloist Erick Traplin.
– November 30, 2012, The Record article by Valerie Hill – Music Alive makes Christmas come alive. Whenever artistic director Alfred Kunz dons a fancy white shirt and requisite gold chain, there is bound to be something fun, something unexpected happening on stage. That will certainly be the case on Saturday, Dec. 1 in Kitchener and on Wednesday, Dec. 5 in Baden, when Kunz’s choral group, Music Alive will present its annual seasonal concert, Christmas, As It Once Was. 
– December 2012, conducted and directed a series of concerts with Music Alive and the Nith Valley Singers entitled Christmas As It Once Was in Kitchener and New Hamburg. With audience sing-a-long, trumpet soloist Al Mullin, Irish Folk Harp Soloist Charlene Rivais and narration of Christmas past.
