Read Free Books and Download eBooks

El Sistema - "the system" - is a music education phenomenon. Since its inception 40 years ago, over a million Venezuelan children from many different socio-economic backgrounds have participated in its mission of "social change through music". This book therefore offers practical information for those seeking knowledge, inspiration or guidance for adapting El Sistema to widely divergent socio-economic settings, particularly within the USA. Designed as a collection of essays, it explores the voices and experiences of teachers, leaders, parents, and experts from related fields with the hope of inspiring actions, both large and small, to advance social change through music.

Awesome book for anyone trying to establish a non profit organization especially a music based program. Some wonderful practitioners share helpful insight and solid fundamentals for helping to deliver strong mission driven programs for change.

This book offers many different perspectives and approaches towards El Sistema inspired music education. It's both a practical and inspiring tool for teaching artists and arts administrators. This book will not get buried in my bookshelf because it's a book I'll refer to time and time again.

Phenomenal book for anyone learning about leadership in non-profits especially in the realm of music education, but it has applicability across a broad swatch of fields and professions. A must read for aspiring organization leaders, administrators, business executives, philanthropies, patrons, and anyone else

This text has been an incredible resource for the faculty of the Tune Up Philly program [...]. These essays will educate, inspire, and further this growing movement. Brava!

A lovely and inspiring essay collection. Great work Ms. Christine Witkowski!
