“Music is a universal language, it inspires, connects and transcends. It goes beyond geographic borders and communication barriers to unite people. Music has always been used to deal with dificult situations and to celebrate life. It has the power to bring people together, create a sense of responsibility, perseverance but also solidarity, fraternity and self-confidence.” Since 2018, Adam Szmidt has visited and supported with his project “Sounds of the earth” various music programmes for social development in countries like South Africa, Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, Papua New Guinea and India.
