harmonica

I like music, though I myself can't play any musical instrument, and nor can I sing. My junior high music teacher said, "You have an alto voice and you sing very well. Your voice does penetrate." Her words pleased me so much. (But when I told my daughter about it --forty years later, she would not believe it. )

My voice suddenly changed 8 years ago. I feel now my voice quaver while reading aloud or talking . When I sing, I can't get the tune--off key, I mean. Why? I am sad but can't help it. I fear that I might lose my voice in the future. I will accept my fate whatever may happen to me.

I am now enjoying playing the harmonica. I play those good old songs I remember on the harmonica. I feel very happy when I am playing the harmonica. But I know the sound of my harmonica is a noise to those who live in this small apartment house. Practice makes perfect. I will try my hardest to be a better player of the harmonica.

dear karin

Ido like Harmonica sounds. Harmonica plays beautiful tune.
But I can't play it. What kind of music do you play?

Music affects in my life since my husband died.
I like classical music especially Rachmaninov.
I usually write calligraphy with CD playing.
Listening to classical music calms my emotions.

Music is rich in my life.
