Playing for Change is a multimedia music project, created by the American producer and
sound engineer Mark Johnson with his Timeless Timeless
Media Group, that
seeks to bring together musicians from around the world. Playing For Change
also created a separate non-profit organization called the Playing For
Change Foundation which builds music schools for children around the world.
The project started in 2004 with the organization's
self-described goal to "inspire, connect, and bring peace to the world
through music". The
creators of the project, Mark Johnson and Enzo Buono, traveled around the world
, using mobile recording equipment, recording local musicians performing the
same song, interpreted in their own style.
