A
Laurie Horam never thought of himself as musical.At home,his dad never listened
to music,and one of his boarding school teachers labelled him tone-deaf.But last month
he started to play the harmonica (on the streets of Bradford.People clapped,
danced and threw coins into his case for the local food bank.Horam caught himself
thinking,"How,at the age of 79,do I come to be playing music to people on the
streets?”
The question preoccupied him,because,some years ago at a family gathering,
Gavin,his eldest son,said,"You know what,Dad?It can't be coincidental.We must have
got our musical abilities from you."Horam has three sons and they cover a range of
instruments.He was surprised."There can't be music in me,because I can't play !he
said
Eight years ago,Horam,a retired civil servant,was on his way back from a trip with
his family.Gavin stopped at a music shop.He walked out and said,"Here you are.I
bought this for you,Dad.It's a harmonica.I'll try to show you how to play a bit."
They went to a session at their local pub.Gavin played the guitar and Horam sat in
the corner with his harmonica,trying to make a sound that no one would hear.After six
months,he was invited into the group.He discovered a talent for improvisation
)responding to a note within a millisecond without batting an eyelid."I don't play by
ear.I play by heart."Actually,Horam says,"My harmonica plays me -how I feel,
what I am,and what I've been."
Music has enriched life with friendship and made Horam feel "part of something
much bigger"than himself."At a time when the circle of life might be shrinking,mine is
expanding,"he says."Maybe we never know completely who we are or what we can do."
