From Spark to Flame: A Glance at Fire Up! 2025

Elisabetta Lapadula, Communications Manager, SONG – Sistema Lombardia

04-01-2026

Imagine choosing—on purpose—to stop. To give yourself a moment of attention and ask, without judgment, a simple question: “Why do I do this work?” It’s a small exercise of meditation and self-awareness that we rarely find time for in our noisy daily routine. And yet, in that brief pause, something can appear: a spark that feeds the question, gives it space, and makes it louder.

For me, Fire Up! 2025 in Athens—a four-day teaching artist residency led by the Academy for Impact through Music (AIM)—was that spark.

Playing in the Same Key: Aligning Purpose and Practice for Students

Fiona Cunningham, Director, Academy for Impact through Music

“What’s the biggest thing keeping you up at night, as a leader or as a teaching artist?”

When Nikoletta Polydorou, founder of Sistema Cyprus, recently posed this question to music-for-social-action leaders and teaching artists across different countries and contexts, one concern surfaced repeatedly: when a program’s purpose isn’t clear, and collectively owned, the learning is less focused and effective.

That first day, I felt like a teenager: somewhat defiant, hesitant to initiate, eager to observe, even mistrusting…but also wanting to chat, meet people, laugh, and share.

AIM knew what they were doing. We’d found ourselves on the other side of the classroom, sitting in the student chair. And in experimenting with ways to develop our own community and agency—our capacity for action—as educators, we found ourselves viewing students’ needs with new empathy.

How can I contribute to making something that’s already great even better?

That was the question I asked myself when I took on the challenge of carrying out the first Academy for Impact Through Music (AIM) Chispa, in Caracas, Venezuela, in December 2024.

Entre la tradición y la innovación: Reimaginar la formación del profesorado en NEOJIBA

José Henrique de Campos, Director Educativo, NEOJIBA

05-07-2025

Al intentar renovar una iniciativa que existe desde hace casi una década, nuestro gran reto es encontrar ese equilibrio preciso entre valorar la tradición y proponer algo nuevo. En NEOJIBA Núcleos Estatales de Orquestas Juveniles e Infantiles de Bahía, este equilibrio es fundamental para nuestra búsqueda continua de mejora: alabar lo que ya funciona, reconocer lo que se puede mejorar y tener la tranquilidad de sugerir algo innovador sin perder la esencia de una idea.

Fue con este espíritu que en 2023, en una tarde soleada durante el "eterno verano" de Bahía, comenzamos a rediseñar el PROCEC, nuestro programa colectivo de formación de profesores.
