Venezuela

A large group, including colleagues from the Longy School and the Rhode Island Philharmonic's Music School, gathered at New Urban Arts for Thursday's Fellowship Seminar which featured Jenn Chang (a senior at Harvard) reporting on her research on the National System of Venezuelan Youth and Children's Orchestras.

Roberto, one of the program's founders, happened to be visiting Boston (pure coincidence) and came to Providence to share further detail and show us video footage. Benito, a clarinetist now living near Boston, who grew up participating in El Sistema, was also able to join us and share his personal experience.
