Rich Baumann went to the Gulf coast in February 2007 to participate in the “Feel Good Tour”
giving performances in the places most damaged by Hurricane Katrina.

After four trips to New Orleans The Million Closets Project has now taken $29,000 worth of donated musical instruments and distributed them on the Gulf Coast to deserving individuals and schools.

My Work (lyrics written)

A Million Closets
By Rich Baumann 1/05/07

Silent music
Trapped in a million closets
Waiting to be Heard
Instruments alone
Waiting…
Waiting for hands to touch
Waiting hearts to warm

Longing hands
Waiting
Things lost
Music silenced

Silent music
Trapped in a million souls
Waiting to touch
Lonely Hands
Waiting to touch
Sore Hearts
Lonely Hands
Wanting most
To share in the healing Music

Korinthia Klein, violin maker and violist donated an instrument valued at $8000 was presented to student Jeffrey Wilson through the Steve Spring Foundation of New Orleans.

"On this trip I carried two cellos, five guitars, three trumpets, a trombone, a french horn, a clarinette, a flute, a banjo and an autoharp, in my 2002 Prius. I lleft a couple fiddles and dulcimers behind because I thought it would pe prodent to be able to see out of the car!"

Horoscope

Today's horoscope for Leo:
Today, it is better for you to accept a fight than to run from it. Conflict is seldom enjoyable, but sometimes it is absolutely necessary. You have to stay true to what you believe in. Otherwise, why bother believing? Face the fury of those who disagree with you -- and rely on help from the people who do agree with you. They are large in number, and strong in their dedication. Be direct and don't mince your words. The clearer you are in your own defense, the sooner the clash will be over.
Looks like a 4 wheatberry day for you dear Leo.
