Symphony for a Broken Orchestra: How Philadelphia Collected Sounds to Save Music

內容簡介

內容簡介 當樂器無法發出我們期望的聲音時會發生什麼？音樂還能是音樂嗎？根據真實故事改編的勵志故事。 這間位在費城的學校，樂器室裡的小提琴、鼓、鋼琴等等…幾乎都壞掉了，發不出該有的聲音，難以讓學生演奏。但，這卻激發了另一個想法：以壞掉的樂器演奏，是否也有另一種風格呢？於是，年輕的、年長的音樂家，都一起加入這場表演，表演募集的資金，將用來修繕樂器。他們向世人展現，即使樂器殘缺，在即興發揮的創意下，還是可以創作美妙、有意義的音樂，更藉此凝聚社區街坊的心。 書末附錄有關非營利組織 Broken Orchestra 的更多資訊。 What happens when musical instruments can’t make the sounds we expect them to make? Is music still possible? An uplifting picture book based on a true story.The schools of Philadelphia were filling up with broken violins, drums, pianos, and more, making it difficult for students to learn to play. This sparked an idea for a symphony, played entirely with the broken instruments, that would raise funds to repair the instruments themselves. Musicians young and old volunteered, and their captivating performance showed that even something broken can sing—and that great music is always possible with a bit of inventiveness and improvisation. Based on real events, this inspiring story introduces young readers to a range of instruments as it celebrates a community coming together to make a joyful, meaningful noise. More information about the nonprofit organization Broken Orchestra can be found in the back matter, including a link to an audio recording of the symphony performance."
