<p><img class="story_image" src="http://www.stereophile.com/images/LandfillHarmonic.jpg" /></p> "My life would be worthless without music," says one young member of the Landfill Harmonic, a music program for the children of Cateura, Paraguay.
<p>
Cateura is recognized as one of the poorest slums of Latin America, a town built atop a massive dump. Children there are born into poverty, surrounded by violence and drugs. They are lucky to have music teacher Favio Chavez, who helps his students find beauty and magic in the world around them. Together, they turn garbage into musical instruments.
