Instrumental Initiative


In the last weeks I have been collecting instruments for the children's home where I'm going to work and stay.
It my mum's idea to take old flutes to Kenya for teaching the children how to play them.
Almost everybody in Germany has a flute or a harmonica soooooooomewhere.
Concerning their weight and size they're perfect & uncomplicated for travelling - especially by plane...

Through putting an advert in the newspaper, contacting (music-teaching) schools and friends I got all these beautiful instruments!

I am deeply touched how many and various instruments I got from people!
(And I could have gotten more if I would have had more time)

Hopefully the children will be as thrilled as I am right now!
I am motivated to keep this project alive, even when I'm back in Germany.
(okay, I haven't left yet :D)
