In this "vivid story" (Economist), Tricia Tunstall "chronicles the
origins and growth of Venezuela's acclaimed El Sistema national
music education program" (Reed Johnson, Los Angeles Times) and
illustrates its overarching goal: to rescue children from the
depredations of poverty through music. What began in Venezuela has
extended to Los Angeles, New York City, and Baltimore, illustrating
that El Sistema is not just a program, it's a movement. Combining
firsthand interviews with compelling stories, Changing Lives
reveals that arts education can indeed effect positive social
change in the United States and around the world.
