Music across boarders

When the ninth graders in block C at Nordhemskolan receives visitors from Whitby Community Collage, the goal is to assemble enough material to play a concert after five days. This wouldn’t be a very difficult prospect if the bands performing didn’t have to have students from both England and Sweden in their groups.
It’s not the easiest thing to get it together considering the language barrier, culture and the fact that you haven’t even met the people you’re supposed to be playing with before. The Swedish students are used to do it one way and the English students another. But when you’ve finally given everyone an instrument and a piece of music to play, it just works! For about two bars! Then someone messes it up, but you’ve got five days to work on that.
The music brings the students so mush closer together compared to just having an exchange visit. You learn how to express yourself around a totally different person. You might not have anything in common with him/her, except the music. But that’s all you need! It’s something you’ll never forget.
The best part is that just a few months later the Swedish students go to Whitby and do exactly the same thing again, though it’s never really the same.
