Bloco Malagasy is back! Rocking South-East Asia with their amazing energy, they are here to promote responsible tourism by encouraging cultural exchange through solidarity and music.
For the second time, Khlong Toey Music Program has the immense privilege to host a one-of-a-kind intercultural encounter through music between Bloco Malagasy, KTMP, and other volunteer musicians from Thailand, joining hands to promote a positive change through music!
---------------------------------------------------------------
Bloco Malagasy is a group of Batucada (Brazilian percussions), consisting of girls from underprivileged neighborhoods of Toliara (Madagascar).
Bloco Malagasy is a project from the Coconut Water Foundation, a non-profit organization that implements community development and education programs in Madagascar and Cambodia.
On Sunday, March 13th, they will be performing at Coffee model, along with the children from Khlong Toey Music Program and other volunteers for an unforgettable evening.
Two years ago they blew everyone’s mind with their incredible energy and fire. We had the pleasure to organize a workshop during daytime, creating bonds between the Malagasy girls and our children with a fun cultural exchange through art and music, followed by a concert in the evening. Feel free to have a look at the following picture album for an overview of our previous event: https://www.facebook.com/orifec/media_set?set=a.10151950521595766.1073741868.590350765&type=3&hc_location=ufi
Two countries, two cultures, two stories, one language. We know music can make this world a better place. This has been our mission and reality for the past three years. Being part of the Playing For Change family has made us realize that it was much more than a simple dream, it was a principle to which we should live by. Come and support this unique event, and see first hand the magic happening!
