“We sometimes do not know how to play together, how to work together, how to listen to each other, how to support each other and how to have fun and laugh together.

You have made us realise what an enormous creative potential we all have. Not for a moment were you fazed by our insecurities and inabilities but you gave every one of us the confidence to join in and make music together.

You have brought more to us than drums and music. You have brought yourselves and your enthusiasm to make something fantastic out of what is available. I think you have brought this idea to us: to be ourselves and to make something fantastic out of what we have. “

– Liane Worm – Regional Family Coordinator for Brainwave
