My youngest son recently took up the electric guitar and last summer attended a week long music camp that provides young musicians the opportunity to play with other young musicians. The concept is to put a band together comprised of a group of these musical campers and with the guidance of a dedicated staffer, the members of the newly formed band select songs, rehearse, record and perform them live at Friday afternoon concerts. The final camp concert was staged at Love Park in Philadelphia. As the bands were playing and the sounds of drums, guitars, keyboards, horns and voices tried to drown out the noise of the city, a group of young pre-schoolers, all wearing green visors, entered the park. I was so proud to see and hear my son perform live...but this little guy who broke into a spontaneous dance as he walked through the park made my day.
