It's Harp Season!
I have been traversing the region in my trusty 1996 Ford Explorer (good old girl), hauling one harp or another to Christmas parties, church services, Prima Vox appearances, concerts, all varieties of good things that happen this time of year.
This season contains the best and the worst of harp playing. The worst? Icy weather than can severely damage the harp. Even icier steps and sidewalks that can severely injure the tender backsides of harpists (yes, I fell down, ow, limp, owie, sympathy welcome).
The best parts?
Getting to play some of my favorite music of all time.
Getting to be a part of beautiful celebrations.
(I still haven't decorated my Christmas tree at home,
so I'm living a decorated holiday vicariously.)
Getting to see people happy because I'm playing for them.
It makes me very, very happy, too.
