Ellie and the Harpmaker

by Hazel Prior

My girlfriend Roe Deer says it’s disgraceful how people are so seldom prepared to pay for music. Have people no idea, she asks, how many years of hard work it takes to learn an instrument? How many hours of practice every day?

Music helps fill up the holes that people leave behind.

You can’t do anything about then, but you can do something about now.
