I Can Bear A Lot But Not

I Didn't Sing For Years And Years, But I Started Playing Harp When I Was Maybe 9 Or 10. I Had Actually Wanted To Play For Years Leading Up To That, But No Teacher In Our Little Town Would Take Me On As A Student, Because I Was Too Young.

Never Get So Attached To A Poem That You Forget Truth That Lacks Lyricism.

I Don't Look At People's Expressions, Because I Still Get Nervous When I Play, Especially When I First Put The Harp Up There. I Just Try To Tune - It Takes Me A Half-hour To Tune, And I Get Nervous If I Look At Anybody When I Do It.

There's Something Fundamental To The Harp That Has Retained Its Appeal My Whole Life. It's An Instrument I Am Just In Love With.

I Have A Deep Rooted Folk Sensibility That I Can't Get Away From Completely.
