| The Simon Bolivar Symphony Orchestra |
We are very much inspired here by the El Sistema programme and it's success stories throughout the world. It has rescued many children from the grip of crime and brought music into their lives. Supporting youth in need through music and youth orchestras is deeply moving and needed. Looking forward to hearing how the programme develops in the UK under the guise of In Harmony - sistema England. Maestro Abreu who is the visionary founder of the programme is respected by people all over the world.
" Music is not only the product of the talent and virtuosity of its
creators; it is the reflection of the soul of the peoples... Music has to be
recognised as an agent of social development, in the highest sense because it
transmits the highest values - solidarity, harmony, mutual compassion. And it
has the ability to unite an entire community, and to express sublime
feelings" Maestro Jose Antonio Abreu
