Description

THE PLAYING FOR CHANGE FOUNDATION IS DEDICATED TO CONNECTING THE WORLD THROUGH MUSIC BY PROVIDING RESOURCES TO MUSICIANS AND THEIR COMMUNITIES AROUND THE WORLD.
A decade ago a small group of documentary filmmakers set out with a dream to create a film rooted in the music of the streets. Not only has that dream been realized, it has blossomed into a global sensation called Playing For Change, a project including musicians of every level of renown, that has touched the lives of millions of people around the world.

While traveling the world filming and recording musicians, the crew became intimately involved with the music and people of each community they visited. Although many of these communities had limited resources and a modest standard of living, the people in them were full of generosity, warmth, and above all they were connected to each other by a common thread: music.

Out of these discoveries, the Playing For Change Foundation was born and made its mission to ensure that anyone with the desire to receive a music education would have the opportunity to do so. The Playing For Change Foundation is dedicated to the fundamental idea that peace and change are possible through the universal language of music.

7 Billion Actions is connecting people and creating positive change through music

From: Playing_For_Change

7 Billion Actions is connecting people and creating positive change through the universal language of music. Music has the power to break down boundaries between people. Music transcends geographical, political, economic, spiritual and ideological distances, uniting people everywhere as one human race. To harness the power of music, we are working with Playing For Change, a multimedia movement created to inspire, connect and bring peace to the world through music. Playing For Change has created an anthem for 7 Billion Actions, “United” (see lyrics). The Playing For Change crew is introducing this song to communities around the globe, where talented musicians are interpreting it through their own distinct voices, instruments and musical styles. To inspire people everywhere, a film crew led by the producer Mark Johnson has been documenting the performances of the song and uploading videos to the web as they are being produced. Want to be part of the 7 Billion Actions sound track? You can add yourself to the video and remix the track. Playing for Change will make a mash up with the different versions produced around the world. + info: http://7billionactions.org/music
