Playing for Change: the transformative power of music

I was futzing around with my computer one night, searching for something worth listening to, when I happened upon this interview on Bill Moyers PBS weekly program, Bill Moyers Journal. The message, the music, the sheer possibilities presented by Mark Johnson, founder of the Playing for Change Foundation, in this interview have stayed with me ever since. I was reminded of how integral music is to our make-up, to what makes us human, and how music has a way of putting us in touch with our most elemental selves.

The interview is just under twenty minutes and worth every minute.

If you prefer the short version, I've also included the video clip.

Playing for Change may make connecting the world through music and art a real possibility, but I would add one more element -- food.

Change, Music, Art and Corn.

!Buen Provecho!
