Concerts with choir and orchestra are a joy. My husband and one son
sing in choirs, sharing the joy with enthusiasm. I try to get to
their concerts, love to be there …
IN THE ORCHESTRA
the violinist lifts her bow
eyes intent on the manuscript
and begins an adagio
in harmony
the music brings my dreams to light
airy as a clear summer day
when wind lifts sparrows into flight
in harmony
the double bass comes in deep slow
the clarinet high and falling
underscored by the warm cello
in harmony
