Music at the border

Duckncover — Tue, 08 Mar 2022 03:34:26 GMT

Saw the most wonderful video today....a man from Germany brought his piano to the Polish border and played beautiful classical and other music for those escaping the Ukraine violence. He said he wanted those who heard the music as they crossed to know they were safe and free...music can have such a positive effect on people. What a caring thing he was doing.

Stories like this, and the one about the strollers, really restore my faith in humanity. Having worked with the public for 42years, I can honestly say there are more good people than bad in this world.

There was a violinist playing for those in the bomb shelter. One young Ukrainian stepped up to the piano at the border and played “We Are The Champions”

I saw the violinist, the man from Germany, and a young woman also playing piano. Sometimes when that is what one can give it can be just the right gift at the right time.

@Duckncover It reminded me of the Titanic, very touching.
