Stronger Together: An Enduring Leitmotif

Christine Rhomberg, Director of Music for Social Change at the Hilti Foundation, 2013-2025

10-01-2025

More than 12 years ago, during my first visit to the then-fledgling Sinfonía por el Perú program, I met a boy—let’s call him Juan—who stood out from the crowd of children. Not only because his double bass was more than twice his size. It was also his charisma, the joyful enthusiasm with which he played his giant instrument, and, even then, his social skills and his attentive devotion to his fellow musicians at his núcleo in the La Victoria district of Lima, Peru.

In the Democratic Republic of Congo, Music Moves Us Forward

Rene Byamungu, Workshop Leader in Musicians Without Borders’ partner program Kivu Youth Music, as told to The Ensemble

07-09-2025

In the North Kivu Province of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the capital city of Goma sits between several mining towns and valuable minerals. Part of an active volcanic region rich in resources, the city serves as an essential transport hub for the nation—and, more importantly, as home to nearly 2 million people, many of whom have been displaced.

This past year, those 2 million have lived through extraordinarily difficult circumstances as the rebel group known as M23—the March 23 Movement—took control of the city. But perhaps none are more affected than the children. Over 2,000 schools in the region have been closed, with many thousands of students displaced and forced to witness the horrors of war, including the deaths of loved ones. As the fighting continues, these young people have been increasingly isolated and ignored, left without opportunities to connect with one another, explore their feelings, and celebrate joy.

And yet, as Workshop Leader Rene Byamungu writes, joy has persisted in North Kivu through music:

Patagonia’s Huilo Huilo Festival Blends Musical Excellence with Social Impact

Barbara Domingos, Artistic Producer, São Paulo State Symphony Orchestra (OSESP); Artistic Operations Manager, Huilo Huilo Music Festival; 2022 cohort member, Global Leaders Institute

07-09-2025

In the heart of Chilean Patagonia, the strings of a violin resonate deep within the temperate forest. Birds sing in harmony with the refined sounds of bows gliding over the strings; leaves whisper centuries-old stories. The Huilo Huilo Biological Reserve, where endangered species are protected, also embraces a group of young musicians—along with their mentors, who are string principals in the Brussels Philharmonic—during daily rehearsals and performances. It’s an inspiring fusion of human artistry and Patagonian majesty.

Rehearsing Community for a Better Tomorrow

Gabrielle Molina, Executive Director, Project Music; Lead Program Consultant, El Sistema USA

07-09-2025

As Executive Director Liz Moulthrop remarked during El Sistema USA’s East Coast Regional Gathering, “Community is our power.” Yet too often programs operate in isolation, brilliant islands of musical striving that rarely connect with the broader archipelago of creative youth development work happening across the world. This siloing, while understandable given resource constraints and logistical challenges, represents a missed opportunity to address our urgent need for unity.

In fact, we must double down on gathering. The practice of community.

Navigating Constraint with Dignity: Lessons from Kinshasa’s “Positive Fatalism”

Lukas Pairon, Professor and Founder of Chair Jonet, University of Ghent, Belgium; Founder of the scholarly network SIMM; Founder of the Music Fund philanthropy; Co-founder of the contemporary music ensemble Ictus.

What can we learn from people who live in one of the most constrained urban environments in the world—and still find ways to make life possible?

The Arts of Dream Begin with Children’s Dreams

Kim Kibun, actor and arts educator

06-04-2025

In both Korean and English, the word dream carries layered meanings. It can refer, first, to the images and sensations we experience during sleep; second, to the hopes and ideals we wish to realize; and third, to a fleeting illusion or unrealistic fantasy.

When I was designing the framework for the Theater of Dreams last year, I leaned into the second meaning—the kind of dream filled with high ideals.

Agentes del cambio

Loukia Lazarou, artista docente y directora de proyectos, Sistema Chipre

05-07-2025

La idea de acoger a voluntarios tenía dos propósitos: por un lado, el personal adicional sería una ayuda inmensa para nuestra organización y, por otro, proporcionarían a nuestros estudiantes jóvenes modelos de conducta, especialmente importantes para los que proceden de entornos vulnerables. Queríamos crear una estructura que fomentara el liderazgo, la responsabilidad social y el intercambio cultural, tanto para los jóvenes de nuestra orquesta como para los voluntarios.

La Iniciativa Reina del Paraíso: Una experiencia que cambia la vida en Vanimo, Papúa Nueva Guinea

Dane Madrigal, compositor, director de orquesta y pedagogo musical

05-07-2025

Una de las experiencias más memorables de mi estancia en Vanimo fue ayudar a los estudiantes a preparar la música para una ocasión verdaderamente especial: la visita, el pasado agosto, del Papa Francisco. Con solo tres semanas para prepararse, los estudiantes fueron capaces de montar tanto un concierto completamente grabado para el Santo Padre como algunas piezas en directo para su visita a los Padres del IVE en Baro.

Sea cual sea el medio, el aprendizaje en grupo nos convierte a todos en líderes

Saurabh Sainani, Jefe de Programa, Enabling Leadership

04-02-2025

Para muchas organizaciones ajenas a nuestra comunidad común, el liderazgo se considera un título o una función formal, algo a lo que aspirar profesionalmente. Sin embargo, cuando se trata de la capacitación de los jóvenes, significa algo más. Lo vemos en las acciones, hábitos y mentalidades cotidianas que capacitan a las personas para marcar la diferencia. Para nosotros, el liderazgo consiste en inspirar a los demás simplemente viviendo tus valores.

En Enabling Leadership (EL), nos esforzamos por apoyar a los jóvenes en su camino hacia esas acciones y valores.

Transformar la vida de los jóvenes a través de la música: Lecciones de cinco años de impacto en el desarrollo creativo de la juventud

Alexis Jackson, responsable de análisis de datos, The Lewis Prize for Music

03-05-2025

La música tiene el poder de transformar vidas, fortalecer comunidades y cuestionar los sistemas que las conforman, pero ¿cómo es en realidad ese proceso transformador? Desde hace cinco años, el Premio Lewis de Música (TLPM) ha abordado esta cuestión apoyando a organizaciones que aprovechan el poder de la música para elevar y empoderar a los jóvenes.
