Music Is The Universal Language 2006-12-20 01:39:26 Many people have asked us how we arrived at our company name "One World Rhythm" The answer to our company identity is as old as music itself. Music
transcends cultural and religious boundaries. Music sees beyond gender and age. Music knows no monetary system or economic class. And music can take our hearts and imaginations to distant lands and enchanted locales.
Recently, a very nice Korean family participated with us in a Kids Rhythm Adventure open house. With the exception of their little boy (6-ish), no-one in their family spoke a lick of english. Although our staff had no experience speaking Korean, the language barrior was simply not an issue. Everyone enjoyed creating "in the moment" music together. After an active evening of fun music creation and activites, we parted as new friends from the experience. Although no words were spoken the night of that open house, we laughed, had a great time and enjoyed each other’s company as our group music making lifted all of o Read more:Universal

One World Rhythm
rocked Canyon Hills Library.Â
By DIANE REED
Anaheim Hills News
Libraries used to be quiet zones, where no one spoke above a whisper and librarians wagged their fingers and “Shhhshed” anyone that did. That is no longer the case.
One World Rhythm rocked the Canyon Hills Library Wednesday and the library staff joined in the noisy fun.
The interactive music program was a first at the local library. And, from the moment Pete Ellison and his percussionists Debbie and Richard Keith began distributing drums, apple-shakers, boom-whackers, maracas, and tambourines to the 114 children and their parents who attended their program, it seemed certain, it wouldn’t be the last.
“Think about the last time you were at the beach and the waves were washing against the shore,” Ellison told the group. “There’s a rhythm to that sound. Today we are going to create and learn a one world
Drumming in the holiday 2006-12-19 23:23:03 I always enjoy drumming with friends and family. Last year I decided to incorporate the “drumming” experience into the holidays and invited everyone over to the house for what they thought would be a traditional Christmas celebration. Much to their surprise, I busted out the drums and other percussion gear and handed them out for all to explore.Â
There, before the lights of the holiday tree and roaring fireplace we gathered and created music together.Everyone had such a great time, I’ve been asked to do it again. This is such a great way to share in an activity together and really have lots of fun. If you don’t have percussion instruments handy, no worries. Find things around the house that can be converted into a percussive instrument. Here are a few hints:Get a package of chopsticks (they are really inexpensive), have your guests break apart the chopsticks (which will be used as strikers for some of your instruments). Bust out some pots and pa Read more:Drumming

The event featured 20 unique performances from local dance, music and theatrical ensembles all rallying together to raise funds earmarked for the Red Cross to aid hurricane Katrina survivors. Show Organizers Joey Letteri & Carie Salas ended the evening with a big high five as they thanked the crowd and performers on hand for helping to pull off such a successful event.

How Can a One World Rhythm party make my (birth) day? 2007-02-03 06:46:54 We've all experienced our share of pin the tail on the donkey, musical chairs and the ever favorite - bashing of the piñata. And while these childhood staples are fun and rather predictable in nature, today's parents are seeking ways to break the "typical" party mold and venture into the unexplored. A whole cottage industry has sprung up to meet such a need and hence the creation of the "themed" party.Â
Party themes can be found in all shapes and sizes, from my little princesses to NASCAR, Star Wars to the Flintstones. Although matching paper plates, cups and napkins are all "nice", the truly adventurous party planner will want to think outside the box and beyond pin the tail on the Chubaka. Which brings us to the topic of what to "do" at the party…what…to…do.
Fortunately, the subject of what to do at the party also addresses the burning question, "How Can a One WorldRhythm
party make my (birth
) day?"Â One World
