my good friend.....as always. you always find and support the very best of colombia. i hope this sound is heard around the world.

i have friends in the medellin symphony orchestra.....they may be good. but their sounds don't travel into the streets and hearts of colombia.

this, is an obra maestro....not only do i congradulate the work and dedication of the master, but all the children, their families...and YOU, mt. who, with the spirit of water, seek out and explore those secret recesses that men despise. and in so doing, you bring into the light, the likes of this!

BRAVO! viva the real colombia.

A great program obviously but I could do without the air of paternalistic liberalism in the video. "These poor children, they would all be shooting each other if we hadn't given them instruments."

appreciate the positive stuff, MT. it would be interesting to hear more about these stories as i am sure you have plenty to say...... maybe in the medellin chatroom? it could be a good time to amp up the ole chatroom as positive stories like yours would be a breath of fresh air.

it's unfortunate that MT rarely posts here anylonger. he is, by far, in my estimation, the most important poster we've had. always delightful stories about REAL life and REAL PEOPLE in colombia.

i think we should establish a sort of award every month for best, most meaningful post and then at the end of the year, best post of the year. so far--again for me--medellin traveler has it hands down.
