Romel Joseph, concert violinist, teacher and Hatian earthquake survivor dropped under the ground while inside the building, lost his school, his violin and his wife is missing. He was underground for 18 hours, his left arm, hand and both feet cut and crushed. Ralph Storm, in NY heard about it. Ralph repairs instruments, he recently replaced Pete Seeger's banjo head. Ralph modified a violin to send to Mr. Joseph. Pete Seeger asked Allan Aunapu to deliver it to the hospital in Miami. Allan asked Vinnie Cerniglia and Maryellen Healy to help him deliver it bringing Christina Leps, who is fluent in French, Birgit Lehmann and Eugen Karschewski visitors from Germany who helped videotape. Mr. Joseph is confident that with therapy he will play again and as the movie shows, he has started.
