WM2-032c - Harmoni Music Project - Madang Usino 2

In 2006 musician David Bridie (Not Drowning Waving, My Friend the Chocolate Cake), through Kate Kennedy, approached WVA and producer Jason Byrne about the idea of developing the "Butterfly Song" Documentary. The documentary focused on PNG stringband musicians with various well known international musicians. It’s aim was to give back to PNG communities through various means including promoting positive aspects of Melanesian life, keeping the traditional form of stringband music alive, running programs within PNG related to health and wellbeing and using profits to rebuild a sound recording studio in Rabaul (destroyed in 1994 by a volcanic eruption). This was brought to Paul Ronalds with a request for a small amount of funding. Paul agreed that it was a small investment for credible branding of WVA and a opportunity to support PNG by leveraging health messages through this promotional vehicle. Therefore, WVA granted 10k out of Paul's P&P discretionary budget and developed a MOU that included a "community Service Announcement" and later agreement of David Bridie and prominent PNG artist, George Telek to perform at the Make Poverty History Concert. It was there that David Bridie was first introduced to Jonathan Treagust and later David Sweeting. Through this initial contact , David B, Jonathan and David S developed a concept for the Harmoni Musik Project by late 2007. Later, David S designed the project with input from Jonathan and David B. The pilot project now looks at delivering health and social messages through a series of music workshops to local youth, developing local youth groups and their musical talents and recording their songs for the purpose of community advocacy and awareness. .

2006年，音乐人戴维·布里迪（David Bridie，曾参与Not Drowning Waving、My Friend the Chocolate Cake两支乐队）通过凯特·肯尼迪（Kate Kennedy）联系WVA与制作人杰森·伯恩（Jason Byrne），提出打造《蝴蝶之歌》纪录片（"Butterfly Song" Documentary）的构想。该片以巴布亚新几内亚（Papua New Guinea，简称PNG）弦乐音乐（stringband music）乐队音乐人及多位知名国际音乐人为主角，旨在通过多种途径回馈巴布亚新几内亚社区：包括宣扬美拉尼西亚的（Melanesian）生活积极面向、传承弦乐音乐的传统形式、在当地开展健康与福祉相关项目，并利用项目收益重建1994年火山喷发中损毁的拉包尔（Rabaul）录音棚。该构想被提交给保罗·罗纳德斯（Paul Ronalds），并申请少量资金支持。保罗认为这是为WVA打造可信品牌形象的小额投资，也是借助这一宣传载体传递健康信息、支持巴布亚新几内亚的契机。因此，WVA从保罗的P&P弹性预算中拨付10k资金，并拟定了包含“社区服务公告（"Community Service Announcement"，简称CSA）”的谅解备忘录（"Memorandum of Understanding"，简称MOU）；后续还与戴维·布里迪及巴布亚新几内亚知名艺术家乔治·特莱克（George Telek）达成合作，邀请其参与“终结贫困演唱会（"Make Poverty History Concert"）”的演出。在这场演唱会上，戴维·布里迪首次结识乔纳森·特里格斯图特（Jonathan Treagust），其后又与戴维·斯威廷（David Sweeting）相识。通过此次初步接触，戴维·布里迪、乔纳森·特里格斯图特与戴维·斯威廷于2007年末共同构思出“和谐音乐项目（"Harmoni Musik Project"）”的方案。其后，戴维·斯威廷在乔纳森与戴维·布里迪的参与下完成了项目设计。当前，该试点项目旨在通过一系列音乐工作坊向当地青少年传递健康与社会议题信息，培育本地青少年音乐团体并挖掘其音乐天赋，同时录制成员们的原创作品，用于社区宣传与意识推广。语言说明如下：
