Dear Mr. Keillor, I've been

April 23, 2004 |

Dear Mr. Keillor,
I've been listening to PHC shows from the archives as a most pleasant way to keep entertained while working on the computer. I work alone at home most of the time, and have found that listening to the great humor, stories and music on your shows can chase away loneliness and ease the creative process.

Recently I listened to the May 31, 2003 show, and heard a song played by Peter Ostroushko and Richard Dworsky called "Psalm of the Prairie" which took my breath away with its sheer beauty and depth of feeling. I've searched through all Peter's recordings I could find, but have had no luck finding this song. If he as not recorded it anywhere, could you please suggest that he do so? I would be most grateful!

Many thanks for the years of listening pleasure you have brought me.

Sincerely,
Jill Ellis

Dear Ms. Ellis,
Peter has not yet recorded "Psalm of the Prairie". The next time I see Peter, I will pass on your kind words and suggestion that he record it. Thanks for taking the time to write.

Sincerely,
Kathryn Slusher
Music Producer
