Das Album „Beethoven goes Adzrowo“<\/strong> der Kopeyia School Brass Band ist das Ergebnis eines interkulturellen Musikworkshops mit Sch\u00fclerInnen im Alter von 10 bis 18 Jahren aus dem Dorf Kopeyia in Ghana. Die Musiker Till K\u00fcnkler und Jo Junghanss unterrichteten 2015 dort als Gastlehrer im Rahmen des Projekts Music Works!.<\/em> Entsprechend der Projektphilosophie basierte dieser Workshop auf gegenseitigem Lernen durch Musik machen. So unterrichtete zum Beispiel Till Posaune in der Brass Band und lernte seinerseits die Lieder und Rhythmen der Schulkinder.<\/p>\n

Adzrowo<\/em> und Kinka<\/em> sind Namen von Rhythmen aus der Kultur des Ewe-Stammes in der Volta-Region Ghana\u2019s. Der Tradition entsprechend werden \u00fcber diese Rhythmen unterschiedliche Melodien ad libitum gespielt \u2013 darunter traditionelle St\u00fccke, Chor\u00e4le und die neu von der Band gelernten Melodien aus Deutschland. Wenn die Gruppe live an Festivit\u00e4ten im Freien spielt, kann ein St\u00fcck allein gerne eine Stunde andauern und dient als Grundlage f\u00fcr Gesang, Tanz und gemeinsames Musiknachen. Das Album „Beethoven goes Adzrowo“ <\/strong>wurde im Freien, im Dagbe-Kulturzentrum Kopeyia aufgenommen. Die St\u00fccke sind auf Albuml\u00e4nge editiert.<\/p>\n

Music Works! <\/em>Dieses Musikprojekt <\/em>wurde vom dem aus Deutschland stammenden Pianisten Jo Junghanss an der Gesamtschule eines l\u00e4ndlichen Dorfes im westafrikanischen Ghana, der Kopeyia School, initiiert. In einem Umfeld, in dem umfassende Bildung einer gro\u00dfen Zahl von Schulkindern verwehrt ist, bietet das Projekt die M\u00f6glichkeit Kindern an Musikunterricht teilzunehmen, Instrumentalspiel zu lernen und gemeinsam zu musizieren. Die Grundidee f\u00fcr Music Works!<\/em> basiert auf der Tatsache, dass Musik auf friedvolle Weise alle Menschen verbindet, unabh\u00e4ngig von Herkunft oder ethnischer Zugeh\u00f6rigkeit. In diesem Sinne sind interkulturelles Lernen und internationale Verst\u00e4ndigung die Schwerpunkte des Konzepts. 2010 wurde Music Works! <\/em>von der Davis Foundation (USA) als \u201cDavis Project for Peace\u201d ausgezeichnet.<\/p>\n

Die Sch\u00fcler der Kopeyia School Brass Band musizieren in Gruppen durch Singen, Trommeln und dem Spiel von Blasinstrumenten. Derzeit sind mehrere Lehrer vor Ort im Projekt besch\u00e4ftigt, viermal die Woche findet der Band-Unterricht statt.<\/p>\n
