There are seasons in any movement. The beginning, that electric moment when a new idea catches fire, is unforgettable. So is the end, when a movement gains a permanent foothold in society.

It’s my impression that, in many places of the world, El Sistema-inspired programs find themselves in that adolescent stage.

These growing years are critical to our future as a movement—just as the adolescent years are critical to our students’ growth. Here are a few discoveries being made by U.S. programs I’m familiar with, shared with the hope that they resonate with programs around the world.

Pero a menudo, por desgracia, nuestro campo puede separar a la gente en bandos aparentemente opuestos. A lo largo de mi carrera como líder de la educación artística, he sido testigo de muchos de estos cismas, así como de sus soluciones. Me gustaría compartir aquí tres de esas dicotomías.

¿Para qué sirve la educación musical?
