Nice to see a guy using harmonicas to work with underprivileged kids. As
we've seen, the inexpensiveness of our instrument can be both a blessing and
a curse. In this case, it allows someone access to people who probably
wouldn't be able to afford any other kind of instrument. Kids that don't
have video games, cable TV, and a slew of other stuff competing for their
time.
The first clip takes place in Cuba, a country where the harmonica
has almost been extinct for many years:

The second clip is from Argentina, same harmonica teacher:

Happy holidays to all my fellow reed players!
