Founded in Venezuela in 1975 by Dr. Jose Antonio Abreu, El Sistema is a tested model of how a music program can create both great musicians, and dramatically change the life trajectory of hundreds of thousands of a nation's most needy children, deeply benefitting youth from all backgrounds who participate. It now teaches music to more than 500,000 of Venezuela's most vulnerable children, and hundreds of thousands more young people around the globe.
