Ellen Brouns, aged 13, was born a dwarf. As she grew up she was keen to learn
the saxophone, but because of her short stature this was not initially
possible. After a long search, Hen, her saxophone teacher, has now found her a
curved soprano sax and this is the instrument on which she is starting to
learn.
Ellen now has the saxophone she has always dreamed of,
and playing it means a lot to her. Hen says, “ I hope this shows how
much people with a handicap can accomplish and that also you can give these
people a gift for life.”
