PLAYING FOR CHANGE
　　Overview
　　“The act of playing music with people of different cultures, religions, economics and politics is a powerful statement. It shows that we can find ways of working together and sharing our experiences with one another in a positive way. Music has the power to break down the walls between cultures, to raise the level of human understanding.”
　　~ Mark Johnson, founder, Playing for Change
　　Bill Moyers called it a remarkable example of “the simple yet transformative power of music... to touch something in each of us.” Variety acknowledged it as “a great showcase for just what incredible, thoroughly accessible popular music is being made worldwide.” Playing for Change (www.PlayingForChange.com) is an extraordinary effort to unite musicians and vocalists from diverse parts of the globe, while at the same time seeking to immerse audiences in a multimedia movement to inspire, connect and bring peace to the world through music.
　　Utilizing innovative mobile audio/video techniques, Playing for Change (PFC) records musicians outdoors in cities and townships worldwide. They’ve travelled from post-Katrina New Orleans to post-apartheid South Africa, from the remote beauty of the Himalayas to the religious diversity of Jerusalem. Their talents are captured in myriad environments: under the sun and beneath the streetlights... in public parks, plazas and promenades... in doorways, on cobblestone streets, amid hilly pueblos. Their performances are subsequently combined in allowing them to collaborate – albeit separated by hundreds, or even thousands, of miles.
　　BEGINNINGS
　　Playing for Change began a decade ago, the brainchild of Grammy-winning music producer and engineer Mark Johnson. “I was in a subway in New York on my way to work, and I heard these two monks playing music,” he recalls. “They were painted head to toe, all white, wearing robes. One was playing a nylon guitar, and the other was singing in a language I didn’t understand. There were about 200 people who stopped to watch, didn’t even get on the train. Some had tears in their eyes. And it occurred to me that here is a group of people that would normally run by each other, but instead they’re coming together. And it’s the music that brought them together.”
　　For ten years Johnson and his team traveled the globe, with a single-minded passion to record little-known musicians for what would become Playing for Change – its name evoking the coins thrown to street musicians as well as the transformation their music inspires. They went to New Orleans shortly after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. “The city felt sad and desolate, yet the music never stopped,” says Johnson. “The street musicians and music in the clubs kept the city alive and gave it a sense of hope.” When they visited South Africa and witnessed its growing pains in the aftermath of apartheid, “we saw that people marching down streets singing in groups of thousands did more to effect positive change than any weapons ever could.”
　　FILMED PROJECTS
　　Initially focusing on Los Angeles, New Orleans and New York, in 2004 PFC made its first documentary, Playing for Change: A Cinematic Discovery of Street Musicians. More recently came the April 2008 premiere of its latest film, Playing for Change: Peace Through Music, at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York. In September 2008, the film won the Audience Award at the Woodstock Film Festival. Directed by Johnson and Jonathan Walls (Automatic), the documentary features over 100 musicians around the world, combining their distant voices into a powerful group of global songs.
　　For the film, PFC’s crew roamed across four continents for four years. An elderly guitar player in Santa Monica wails “Stand By Me,” and his performance serves as the guiding track for a multitude of others: New Orleans blues singers, harmonica, washboard and slide guitar players... an orchestral chamber group in Moscow... a pair of rocking guitarists in Venezuela... a ukulele on the streets of Rio de Janeiro... a saxophone in front of a graffiti-sprayed warehouse in Pisa, Italy... a drummer on a tenement balcony in the Congo mixing beats with a conga player in Barcelona, Spain.
　　There are also moving performances of traditional music: from the freedom fighters of South Africa playing songs that helped topple apartheid, to the Zuni of New Mexico performing ancient drum songs of religious devotion. Along the way, the musicians interviewed again and again present the idea that music is a tool to promote peace.
　　In addition to audience acclaim on the festival circuit, critical reviews of the film have been universally positive. “Wanting a movie to end so you can run out and buy the soundtrack may not seem like huge endorsement, but in this case, it is,” wrote Variety. “Playing for Change: Peace Through Music...is often so exhilarating, its...utopianism doesn’t seem so implausible... Significantly, a lot of the musicians are not seen playing in their own homelands – sometimes by choice, sometimes by the choices of others.”
　　PFC FOUNDATION
　　Recording musicians in some of the poorest parts of the world inspired PFC to establish the Playing for Change Foundation, which aims to offer resources – including facilities, technology, musical instruments and education – to musicians and their communities. Set to open in January 2009 is the Foundation’s first project, the Playing for Change Ntonga Music School in South Africa. The Foundation is also working with South African poet Lesego Rampolokenga to build the Mehlo Arts Center in Johannesburg. Among its fundraising efforts benefiting the Foundation, PFC brought together eight of the musicians from Playing for Change: Peace Through Music to perform and record at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival and, just this past November, held another benefit concert in Denver which raised close to $150,000. Funds from this event were used to complete construction on the Playing for Change Ntonga Music School.
　　TIMELESS MEDIA: A JOINT VENTURE WITH CONCORD MUSIC GROUP
　　In early 2008, PFC established Timeless Media, a for-profit entity that funds and extends the work of Playing for Change. Later that year, Timeless Media entered into a joint venture with the Concord Music Group through the support of label co-owner and entertainment legend Norman Lear and Concord Music Group executive vice president of A&R John Burk. The JV will fund ongoing projects, produce CDs, DVDs and merchandise. The goal is to bring PFC’s music, videos and message to the widest possible audience.
　　A dedicated website, to launch in 2009, will allow featured PFC artists around the world to record, publish, promote and sell their music to a global audience. The site, which will also eventually provide a breadth of multimedia content for download, will allocate a portion of all revenues toward the building of music schools and other activities in support of the Playing for Change Foundation.
　　OTHER PFC PARTNERS
　　In addition to Concord Music Group, PFC also works with Bahrain-based 2 Seas Records and its founder, Sheikh Abdullah al-Khalifa, who serves as an executive producer on joint projects. Enhancing PFC’s presence in the Middle East, from securing performers to reaching audiences, Sheikh Abdullah shares a vision with PFC to unite the world through music.
　　PFC TEAM
　　Mark Johnson
　　Co-Founder & Director/Producer, Playing for Change
　　Chairman of the Board, Playing for Change Foundation
　　Mark Johnson is a Grammy-winning producer/engineer and award-winning film director whose visionary concept a decade ago became the driving force behind Playing for Change. His work was recently spotlighted in a profile on the PBS series “Bill Moyers Journal.”
　　For the past decade he has worked with some of the most renowned producers in the music, film and television industries, and with such musical artists as Paul Simon, Jackson Browne, Rikki Lee Jones, Los Lobos and Henry Rollins. In 2005, Johnson earned a “Contemporary Blues Album of the Year” Grammy as producer/engineer of the Keb’ Mo album Keep It Simple.
　　Johnson parlayed his musical knowledge and technical skills in perfecting an innovative mobile technique for recording musicians around the world, and combining their performances, giving birth to the dream of Playing for Change. His first documentary film, Playing for Change: A Cinematic Discovery of Street Musicians, won honors at several European festivals, and his more recent project, Playing for Change: Peace Through Music, has garnered awards and critical praise at the Tribeca Film Festival, Maui Film Festival, San Francisco Black International Film Festival, Jerusalem Film Festival and New England’s Roxbury Film Festival, where it earned “Best Song” for “Stand by Me.”
　　Whitney Burditt
　　Executive Director, Playing for Change Foundation
　　A longtime advocate and participant in the arts, Whitney Burditt holds a Bachelor of Speech in Theater from Northwestern University, where she was a choreographer, dancer and actress. Post-graduate credits include choreography for the off-Broadway musical I Sing and the London production of Romeo and Juliet, which went on to tour war-ravaged Beirut, Lebanon.
　　Upon returning to the United States, Burditt moved to Los Angeles to pursue a film career and founded One Way Productions, a film production company dedicated to the creation of forward-thinking films that advocate positive social change. Shortly after meeting Mark Johnson, they became partners and set off to discover music on the streets and in the hearts of musicians worldwide. Upon the conclusion of Playing for Change: Peace Through Music, the team was inspired to form the Playing for Change Foundation, which aims to aid musicians and their communities featured in the PFC documentaries.
　　The PFC team also includes Jonathan Walls (Co-Director/Editor), Dave Bacon (Executive Producer), Joe Carnahan (Producer), Raan Williams (Producer), Jeremy Goulder (Producer), Joel Goulder (Producer), Kevin Krupitzer (Cinematographer/Producer), Doug Kenney (Co-Producer/ Consultant), Enzo Buono (Associate Producer), Francois Viguie (Associate Producer) and Ant Rich (Associate Producer).
