I Love this video about some kids in Cateura, on the cusps of Asuncion, Paraguay who are showing the world that tunes out of trash is a real thing.

Favio Chavez is an environmental technician who visioned up a music school as an open door for kids.  Don Cola Gomez is a simple trash worker and carpenter.  He had never seen, heard or held a violin in his life, but when someone described one to him, he took a paint can and an old oven tray into his dirty workshop and made a violin.

I’m moved

I’m embarrassed

I’m inspired

How someplace I’ve never heard about,  took a junk heap and literally turned it into a concert hall

I    F .  .  .

THAT

.    .    .what. . .of me. . .of you. . .of us ?

What tune can come from my mess. . .

What symphony can crescendo up out of my Soul. . .

What Maestro can wave up a baton and command me to Create/Produce/Harmonize out an aria. . .

w          h          a          t   ?

REALIZATION

THAT

I

CAN ?

Garbage always has a way of earning it’s name

. . .But our mess often can become music

if. . .

you just keep playing. . . .

A symphony is never just a note

but try having one without a single first euphony

Shhhhhhhhhhh. . .the Sonata is beginning

you’re  up–

S     O     U     N     D

O      F    F

. . .the world needs your music

desperately

YOUR   DUMP

is the World’s Dance Hall

. . .do not disappoint. . .
