This is a pretty good assessment, Nuriel. Her first foray was with the ukelele, which is pretty easy to play. Then on to guitar and piano, discovering all the way. When she was in Greece for a year the government prohibited guitar (so she says in an interview) so she picked up the dulcimer and forged ahead with that. I wish she'd get to work on the accordion to challenge herself, but I don't think her post-polio syndrome would allow much accordion exploration. Bob NP: Heather Nova, "We Can Work It Out"
