A trip to the World Playground makes exploring other cultures a fun adventure for music fans of all ages. When I was a child, I danced around the house to the music of Danny Kaye and others. The music made me so happy. Unfortunately, there wasn't much international music available in America in the l950's. The world has changed a lot since those days and the music of many different countries can now be found.
Music is very powerful.
Not only can it make you feel good, but It can help you learn about other cultures. People from other countries have rich experiences and musical traditions that are different from our own. Yet, they also have some remarkable similarities. Through music, we can see the incredible diversity of human experience and begin to understand the value of difference. Rhythms, melodies and instruments have travelled across oceans and combined with local musical traditions to create new and exciting music.
