Please read the programme written out briefly under, suggesting a theme for a 2 hrs session with school and college children of Mumbai; A Flier for the event on Sunday 22nd June has been attached to this mail with photographs and details; Background Music and singing is known to be a very effective tool for children in bettering their expression and self-confidence. In this context, we had the god-sent gift of a volunteer, a reputed singer and musician from Australia, Michael Turner and his team, who worked with children in many schools in the tribal Thane region. In the process of his three months' work in LSF, he wrote songs in English and composed tunes that would inspire children towards feeling love, peace, respect and gratitude and so forth. These songs were taught during his tenure in the LSF project in 2006, to hundreds of children in schools, as a way to encourage self-expression and easy English learning. In April 2006, some of the tribal/rural children from the region were selected and their singing was recorded in a professional studio in Mumbai, along with Michael's voice in English and another volunteer, singer-song writer Manish Dhiman in Hindi. The result was the turn-out of 17 professional soundtracks which were collectively called "Light of Love – Inspiring songs from children of the forest". The recording costs at two different periods of time were privately sponsored by supporters of Learning Space. The Musical Event in Mumbai Michael Turner is coming to India on the 6th June 08, and will be here for a whole month to once again connect with the musical expression that he started with the children of Thane district. Apart from this, he and the Learning Space Foundation is very keen on holding events in Mumbai inviting school and college children to widen the same expression that is suffused with living values like universal love, peace, respect and unity. He will be holding a session with children of Mumbai titled "Soul Connect with Your Singing Heart " where he will demonstrate the value of singing together with ONE voice, using some of the songs from his work "Michael Turner & the Peaceful Stars" recently released in Australia, and the "Light of Love" album; the session will be of 2 ½ hrs duration and will be held in the late afternoon preferably on a Thursday. An introductory song & dance performance will be rendered by some children of villages under the LSF teaching programs. Alongside the music album made by him and his group of village children will be launched at the same event, to generate awareness among urban children and connect them to the Learning Space program in the villages.
