El Sistema Nacional de Orquestas y Coros Juveniles y Infantiles de Venezuela.
Social and cultural work of the Venezuelan State
Public music education system with free and open access for children and young adults.
Responsible for the maintenance of over 125 youth orchestras and choirs, and the education of over 350,000 students
The importance of this project is not only artistic, as most of El Sistema’s young musicians come from the poorest strata of the population
