    Ich bin dir einmal in Hude bei den Celtic Days begegnet und habe dich ebenfalls in Hude auf einem Konzert erlebt.
    Deine Musik tut immer wieder der Seele gut!
    Liebe Grüße

    Life can be so slow and gigantic if you take more moments to breathe. Slow your temperament, slow your mind and it’s sharpening, allow not the crime of shopping for new scheme. Rhyme with nature, rest with light and airy creatures and sing with a momentous blossoming. Life is so fragrant.

      You should try the harp, starting with simple tunes on the Celtic harp is not that difficult and I know many adult beginners.
      Check out Shelley's page harpwales.com/workshops-for-non-harpists/
      She's in Wales, but here are harpists offering similar "Try he harp for a day-workshops" around the globe!
