Helping to bring hope back to the people of Haiti through music...
SOUND for Haiti is a project born of our desire to give to the people of Haiti a
little glimpse of joy as they start the long road back to hope.
The name of the project, String Orchestra United for a New Day, comes from the
title of a song that I wrote last year entitled New Day. To hear a sample of the
song,

Haitian musicians need our help, and we are confident that musicians and music
lovers around the world will rise to the occasion.
We will be partnering with the Williams family in this project. Read about
their experience as they lived through the horrors of the earthquake, and their
vision to help the people of Haiti.

SOUND details:
1. Music schools and hundreds of musical instruments were
destroyed or damaged during the earthquake, leaving a great void in the lives of
the people there.
2. Through the generous donations of people around the world,
we hope to replace and repair many of these instruments for the Haitian people.
3. In the spring of 2011, the Taubl Family, the Williams
family, and a support team will travel to Haiti. Their mission will be to
deliver the collected musical instruments and to host a music clinic in Port au
Prince, culminating in a combined concert at the end of the week.
If you have ideas, suggestions, or donations, please feel free to
contact us.
The Taubl Family, SOUND For Haiti, is working closely with Instrumental
Change, Inc. (ICI) to provide help for the musicians of Haiti. All
donations are tax deductible. Please
contact us with questions about financial
matters.
