Nature is very beautiful. Sometimes it is hard to realize the true beauty of nature living in New York City. We are often too busy rushing to get to work or to school to be able to stop and stare at a garden full of colorful flowers and flying bees surrounding them‚ transporting pollen from one to another.

This poem by Walter De La Mare best describes what our project is about‚ the ‘co-existence’ of nature with music. A beautiful description of music through nature in the form of literature! Music When music sounds‚ gone is the earth I know‚ And all her lovely things even lovelier grow; Her flowers in vision flame‚ her forest trees Lift burdened branches‚ stilled with ecstasies.
