On Wednesday evening we were treated to an amazing
concert by the Recycled Orchestra
from Paraguay.
These kids have been raised on a landfill.
You can watch a video about their story here.
The violins have been made from old paint cans
and baking pans.
The can from this double bass once
held petroleum.
An oil can cello.
A saxophone made from a water pipe
with a downspout from an eaves-trough.
This little girl is only 11!
She is a gifted player and was obviously born to
play the saxophone.
A trumpet with a German fingering system.
This young woman is from Argentina.
Besides playing a mean tenor sax,
she gave quite a tango demonstration!
It was a remarkable evening.

Watch the video!
You will be amazed.
