【创意篇】无家可归人士的合唱团

weston注: 在[创意篇]里,会逐渐介绍一些从不同角度对社会做出贡献的人士,特别是那些不拘陈规而实现新想法的. 前几天介绍的Emily Pilloton (为改进美国教育,从哪里着手? )属于此类人物.

这是英国头一个这样的音乐团体,也可能是世界上第一个.
他们的合唱团的名字是"无名"---The Choir With No Name
先看他们的录像:



这个组的发起人兼指挥是合唱爱好者Marie Benton. 她在一个收留戒毒戒酒收留所工作时,开始想利用歌唱来帮助这些无家可归人士.通过她家人朋友的筹款,她的想法逐渐得到实现.以至现在有上面高质量的录像出品.

Marie Benton是一个难得人才.她的努力得到了很多人认同和支持, 也得到了社会人士的捐赠.下面是一个她们获得富翁赠款的记录,来自英国Channel 4一个节目. 据说此团现在已经能依靠演出收入生存, 很不容易.

最重要的是,Marie的努力改变了很多人的命运. 她用music making帮助这些人找到了归属感和荣誉感,把他们从社会和生活的边缘拉了回来. 功德无量.

回复WienFan的评论:
谢谢这个信息.我查了一下,英国美国有几个teach music in prison
program.
根据我自身的体验,[古典]音乐有启发心灵能量的作用.

音乐可以改变人性。我有过一个钢琴老师,他受到私人基金会支助,在一所监狱教犯人弹琴。音乐会我去了,有的犯人(比如贩毒)极聪明。
