Dr. Fose remains active as a musician in both San Diego and San Luis Obispo. She is an avid lover of jazz (especially Dixieland) and performed frequently on trombone with the Tin Roof Hot Cats Dixieland Band of San Diego.

Dr. Fose is also active as a composer. Her children's musicals, The Christmas Rose and The Mystery Child have both been premiered by the Pacific Beach United Methodist Church. The PBUMC Voices of Praise Choir performs many of her compositions and arrangements on a regular basis. Her current composition project is a commissioned Christmas musical drama for PBUMC's Voices of Praise drama team and orchestra, entitled Joseph: The Earthly Father, which examines the nativity from Joseph's point of view. Other compositions include music commissioned for the California Space Institute's Educational CD ROM and a commissioned arrangement for piano of Great is Thy Faithfulness which is featured on Dr. Kay Etheridge's compact disc A Return to Hymns.
