«Music has the power to bring people around the world together.» Yeah, yeah, sure, right. How trite can you get? But then I saw this video and heard the founder of the Project and Foundation on Bill Moyer’s Journal and became a believer for life. There really IS no other choice than to come together.
Take a recording of a Santa Monica street musician around the world and have other musicians; singers, drummers, guitarists, a cellist, a bass player, etc. etc. accompany and elaborate on the theme. The music engineering behind this alone is phenomenal. It took years to crisscross the global and mix in all the other artists. A DVD of all the songs produced will be out at the end of April.
Beyond this production, Play for Change is a foundation bringing music schools to remote communities. They will provide web cams so folks can watch in on their work.
Watch this space, I bet many of the featured musicians will become the next big thing since Buena Vista Social Club.
