Lesson 2 From ~arbage cate mus1c

on the right, lives in the town of Cateura in
loved music.
Paraguay. Cateura is one big, big, big garbage
Butthey __d.-tn-np. There is trash everywhere. At the t
had no dump, in the streets. Everywne're. And everyone in ( .-4...
instruments. Cateura works at the garbage dump. {Cola also works
at the dump. He collects trash every day. Then he takes
sorne of it to his workshop and~ to recycle it.
One day, Cola was working with a piece of tin when
Favio Chávez walked in. Chávez was carrying a violin. He
said, "Can you make a violín out of garbage?" According to
one version of the story, Cola had never seen a violin befare, but he studied
~ ~ . Favio's violín and measured it. By the end of the day, he had made his first
instrument! And once he had started, he c ouldn't stop! Soon he had built
/ e ellos, double basses, flutes , trumpets ami ...
Soon the kids all had instruments (made by Cola), so Chávez .s.t.arted-a- s.mall
orchestra . He called it the Recycled Orchestra. And people loved it! And then.
someone put a video on Facebook, and things took off. Suddenly everyone wanted
to hear and see the Recycled Orchestra from Cateura,
Paraguay. Favio Chávez took "his" kids ali around
South America and then to Europe. They even
played concerts with the heavy metal band
Metallica in front of hundreds of thousands
of people!
Now people ali over the world know about
the Recycled Orchestra and are sending new
musical instruments to the kids of Cateura so
they don't have to play with only garbage-made
instruments. But what a wonderful reuse of old
materials. The world has learned something from
the creativity of the Recycled Orchestra.
