I Am Consciously Trying Not To Make

I Had Known That People Would Probably Have Strange Reactions To My Voice, Because I Have Kind Of An Unwieldy, Difficult Voice, But I Never Thought That Anybody Would Have A Problem With The Harp. I Just Assumed... C'mon, It's A Beautiful Instrument.

I Have A Lot Of Interest In Interior Rhyming; Not Just Rhyming At The End Of The Lines, But Playing Around With Rhymes Within The Lines, Playing With Where The Syllabic Emphases In The Sentences Are, Lining Those Up At Strange Moments In The Line Of The Song. I’m Not Sure If That Comes Across Or Not.

My Voice In Combination With The Harp - Which, By The Way, I Use Because I've Played It My Entire Life, Not To Make Some Statement About The Harp - Somehow Has ... Coloured People's Interpretations Of The Music And Projected An Idea Of Childlike Or Fairytale Quality Or Innocence. Which Sometimes Prevents People From Listening To The Songs The Way I Would Like Them To Be Listened To.

I Am Not Doing Something That It Is Experimental Music In Relation To Classical Music.

I've Been Unaware Of How People React To The Instrument. People Have Ideas Of What A Harp Is Supposed To Sound Like, And A Lot Of Them Are Negative Ideas.
