Trash to Tunes
Trash to Tunes On Wednesday morning we had Dr. Dennis Waring here for his program ‘Trash to Tunes.’ He brought with him a wide array of instruments; a mouth bow, a bull roarer, a conch shell, flutes, banjo’s, drums, and more, most of them homemade. With each instrument he told us the history and uses of it and, if it was homemade, how to make one ourselves. Plus he played a variety of songs with the different instruments, in styles ranging from folk to rap. He ended the program by having kids join him in a jug-band. He was very interesting and funny, he kept the audience of kids ages 3-13 tuned in the whole time!
