Re: [Harp-L] what else do you do?

["Alec" <alec@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hinderances: Cycling (esp. Mountain Biking), Skiing - I've 
been obsessed with these sports lately and it definitely 
cuts into my practice time. On the plus side, my live 
performances are more energetic as I am in much better 
shape. Also, my day job (teaching math) cuts into my 
practice time.

Help: Parenthood - I spend a lot of time helping my kids 
with their music lessons. I play duets with my kids who 
play clarinet and violin. I usually accompony them on 
Chromatic harp, although occasionally diatonic harp, 
guitar, mandolin, violin, or lately, piano. I've been 
practicing guitar and mandolin more than harp lately, but 
my sight reading has improved a lot by playing these 
duets.

Take care,

Alec
