With the arrival of winter, the waters along the east coast of South Africa cool, attracting billions of sardines that push north of the Cape attracted by the rich deposits of plankton.

Numerous, as always, the reports and columns, including: “It is not for children with musical talent or for a certain social class. We do not just want to introduce children to music, but to life through music.
