A musical tale told wordlessly:
A simple man walks down the road playing a simple man's tune on a tin whistle. He dances happily past another man with a fiddle. The first man stops and plays more of the tune. The fiddler picks of the tune and joins the walk, adding a melody which, surprisingly, shows the simple tune to be a harmony!
They pass a third man, one who is holding a different instrument. He joins etc. until a whole mass of accumulated marchers, now playing a much fuller song and the simple tune has been woven within a much more complex piece of music, they walk past the rock club. Patrons and musicians watch them suspiciously, this rag tag group playing a piece of non-rock musicians, then they join and complement the arrangement, improving it by addition. Then past the church and the choir joins in, then the symphony etc and everyone, no matter the background or difference in style, joins and augments to make the simple tune grander and grander.
The song culminates with a once more through the chorus and then home. Fin. Everyone looks at each other and starts shaking hands and comparing ideas about music.
Camera pans way out and over...miles away and zooms back into a view of a 5 year old kid who is crouching, drawing on the street with dirt and a rock scratching into asphalt while unconsciously humming the same simple tune.
