Young man from São Paulo Outskirts makes violins out of used wood

 

David Souza Rocha lives in the outskirts of São Paulo. He studies at a regular school in the evening. Every afternoon, he goes to Tide Setubal Foundation, a cultural center in São Miguel Paulista.

 At the Foundation, David takes a luthiery course: he learns how to make and repair some musical instruments.

Sometimes, David walks around garbage sites or along the Tietê river looking for old wardrobes, old tables and boxes. He collects them and makes musical instruments out of the used wood.

He works as a monitor at the Foundation and is learning how to play the violin, too. David likes music and wants to be a good musician. “I have a dream”, he says. “I want to play in an orchestra at Sala São Paulo.”

He points to a violin and completes, “I want to play this violin at Sala São Paulo”.
