Summer is a wonderful time.
Not only is the sun shining and the warmth of the days calls us to spend
more time in that glorious light, but perhaps more importantly…it’s festival
season!
I am basking in the afterglow of participating in the
Somerset Folk Harp Festival in a summer full of enjoying the thrill of the middle of the summer
Games and Competitions season, while getting ready for this year’s Harp Camp,
and gearing up for the Harp the Highlands and Islands tour for this year*.
Summer is just chock-a-block with great opportunities to
learn, to play, to meet new friends, to see old friends, and to just enjoy our
music! I hope you have had to occasion to
avail yourself of the discovery, the camaraderie, and the pure joy of making
music.
Summer is fleeting though and soon we’ll be in the bitter
cold of winter when there are fewer opportunities to get together, time will be
spent alone, practicing for Christmas gigs, and the shortened days seem to suck
some of the joy from the day. With the
waning daylight we will miss the carefree days of playing through the
summer.
Find your opportunity to join
with others, to make music and have fun!
