Playing For Change: Chanda Mama

You may have heard of Playing For Change..."a multimedia movement created to inspire, connect, and bring peace to the world through music. Music has the universal power to transcend and unite us as one human race." One of the goals of my blog is to help promote understanding...love...and peace. So, I occasionally feature selected episodes of their journey. You can view the all the episodes I've posted to date here.

The caption for this next performance reads:

"This Song Around the World is a folk tune from Chennai, India. We started the track in New Orleans and added musicians from across the globe before finally delivering it the people of it's origin. We ended up in Chennai recording and filming the vocals from the Oneness Choir. The track has a feeling of perseverance and joy and features vocalists from four continents."

Episode Seven: A multinational performance of "Chanda Mama". (3:28)
