Landfill Harmonic

[Shawn@PRS]

I saw this story about kids who formed a symphony playing only homemade or recycled instruments. The human spirit is an amazing thing and the need to create is indomitable.

Interesting watch. Thanks for sharing.

Wow!! I'm really glad I watched that. I just made a post about my favorite neck carves, which is so incredibly trivial compared to this.

That is a really neat story.

Humbled.

Again.

In so many ways, my friends here, all of you, keep me grounded.

Inspiring...

I have my daughter's old student grade violins in 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 sizes... I bought them off e-Bay when she first started playing. It was cheaper than renting, and I figured I'd sell them when she out grew them. I never got around to doing that. They are collecting dust in the basement... I'm going to try to send them to this organization...

Shawn, This is an amazing video/story. I have a few instruments that are not working right as well as some strings, etc. I'm going to look into sending them theses items.

I saw that a bit ago and was blown away by it.
