Hello Music for Canoa Supporters!
Music For Canoa Project continues to serve the youth in Canoa Quebrada, Brazil thanks to your support. We continue to offer guitar lessons, an orchestra composed of 15 musicians and a chorus. This last month, we have received some instruments donated from Germany, which will help expand the orchestra. We currently need help with maintenance of instruments as well as help paying the maestro's salary. Our new maestro, Arthur, has been a great addition to our program. Arthur is dedicated to the youth he teaches and we are very lucky to have him in our team. We hope you can continue support us so that Music for Canoa continues to change these children's lives.
" I hope I can always continue to play my instrument. I hope our orchestra continues to grow and that we can have more people helping us. I now play the clarinet and will also learn the flute. My best performance was playing during my town's St. Peters Festival in June. It was a great experience and I was so happy to play for my community. Everyone kept praising us. The maestro, Arthur, has helped me grow as a musician and he is dedicated to my progress as his students. I am very lucky to have him as my teacher". Isabel Rocha, 11 years old.
