Forever Grateful - Forever Music

Forever Grateful - Forever Music

Forever Grateful - Forever Music

Inspired by a post by Lorena Negrete on Street Performers, I thought we'd take a little trip around the World in gratitude for all the artists who make this World a better place. Their music unites us, and for one moment, we forget work stress, we forget war, terrorism, hatred, politics, sorrow, loss, failure. Their dedication and passion inspires us to be better people. They play to be heard. The music starts, and we stop for a moment. If we don't stop, we should, no matter how busy we are. 


First stop, Native American music by Alexandro Querevalú. I apologise if you have seen these before. If you haven't, prepare to be captivated...

 


Next stop, Tehran and the wonderful music of Golshifte Farahani on the hang drums. If you thought you'd seen her before somewhere, it is likely you have. Think Leonardo Di Caprio's "Body of Lies". 



Plastic buckets next, and the guy with the fastest hands on the planet (and 50 million views!)



Drummer extraordinaire Dario Rossi on pots and pans next from the Netherlands. 



And now to Spain and Paul de Senneville on the Cimbalom



And from Japan, Yuki Koshimoto on the hang drum. Prepare to be enchanted.



Now to Ecuador, and Leo Rojas on pan pipes doing a familiar song from Disney



And for the Grand Finale, well what can I say - Playing for Change, and "Stand by Me" in the absolute best tribute to street performers around the World. 


October 16th - I just came across this gem. Unchained Melody by Mike Yung. What a Voice!

Quimojo, a revolutionary new concept in Global Campus Recruitment.

I'm glad Gert Scholtz. Love, love it. You wrote: "Their music unites us, and for one moment, we forget work stress, we forget war, terrorism, hatred, politics, sorrow, loss, failure." That is the truth! I never knew the round drum was called a hang drum. We listened to a man from Jamaica play the hang drum on Pearl St. in Boulder Colorado, beautiful and little girls were dancing around him, having fun. My husband turned me on to playing for change quite a while ago, they are great. I listened to Keb Mo sing stand by me... the artist above was great too. Wow, the man in the subway, awesome! Thanks for sharing this.

Totally Catalina G\u00e1lvez Urrutia. I need to get me a hang drum, but as with any instrument, I am sure it is not as easy as it looks! Thanks for sharing, and for supporting the community tirelessly as you do!

You gotta get these guys on video when you have the chance @Pascal (and obviously ask them if OK to post). Great street artists are really going viral, helping them to come in from the cold I guess. I love the Jamaican tin drums.

Not heard of Stomu Yamashita. Just looked him up. Reminds me of Alan Parsons. Now we need a video of you on pipes in a skirt Ken Boddie-sama!

You tapped into the vault of instant memories yet again my friend. I used to play drums in pipe bands in Scotlanf many moons ago and have still maintained an interest in all forms of musical percussion. I was entranced by the hang drum performance most of all. Have you ever stumbled across Stomu Yamashta?
