Program to Revive Music Education in Afghanistan

[aldona]

I have just discovered that my alma mater (Monash University, Melbourne) is involved in setting up a music school in Kabul, Afghanistan.

After 30 years of Taliban rule (when music was banned), there is a great need to re-establish music and music education in the nation.

This is why IMSLP and similar organisations are so vital - these are the kinds of students who could not possibly afford to buy sheet music at market prices, and will rely on the public domain for their access to music scores.

Keep on collecting and scanning! (and counting down until July 1!)
