About this Event
The Spirit of Goodwill Band
The Spirit of Goodwill band, made up of people with a variety of disabilities – come together to play beautiful music. Their journey is one filled with setbacks, victories and—ultimately—growth as individuals. Their joy of participation and sense of empowerment shows on each musician's face as they play.
This disciplined group of men and women, with their own style of music, has much more to give than just a great sound. They offer inspiration and the message of music's nurturing powers for people with and without disabilities. This band is about a fundamental need of people just wanting to belong, to be accepted. Participating in the band is their way of demonstrating to both themselves and their critics that they have something to contribute to society: skills, talent and commitment. The band proves to be an important life lesson of hope and courage.
