Curator’s clip description
This clip shows archival photographs of the family. Cathy Mills tells of meeting her husband David, and how music was an element that attracted her to her husband.
Curator’s notes
The simple but effective use of music and well-chosen still images, together with the relaxed and natural voice-over, creates a sense of the warmth of the relationship, and shows the growth of a close-knit family where the joy and love of family is anchored through a common love of music.
Romaine Moreton, curator
