  This is a unique and original music programme/activity called “All about M.E” Music Empowerment for youth.We encourage the young people to write their own personal story, true events and combine them with music and record them on CD. So, their story is told through a song to a genre of music that they love (Hip Hop, RnB and Pop). This has proven to be very successful, to implement the Art of Storytelling with music.
