Lyre players: Erica, Kate, Lucille, Lynn, and Calvin

There were five lyre players in the Orchestra: Erica, Kate, Lucille, Lynn, and Calvin. They also played as a team – the same music played by each player with a small delay. They were a group performing at special occasions. During winter holiday celebrations they would sit beneath the falling snow and play folk songs. One day they were playing outside of the Courthouse on a beautiful snowy day. Suddenly, in the middle of the performance they were asked to leave. It was all pre-arranged and they had already been paid. The reason was unknown and it bothered them a lot. They went out to the nearest coffee shop to warm up and to exchange their own interpretations.

1. Erica –No doubt, it was racial.
2. Kate –The government does not like the Arts. The 1% tax going to the Arts annoys “them.”
3. Lucille –They want the Court to be noise-free zone.
4. Lynn – It’s all about religion.
5. Calvin –We all belong to the wrong political party.

Actually, the city was planning a joyful art parade that would celebrate various ethnic groups and religions. The five lyre players were sitting on the way of the parade. Soon, they received a letter apologizing for bad planning on the account of the city and an invitation to perform for a very special occasion.
