The Transformative Power of Music
Welcome to the first episode on this channel! This podcast is intended to provide a space for sharing knowledge, ideas, resources and insights for individual and collective empowerment, in and through music and the arts. We will explore different aspects of an artistic journey and experience, from a life-long artistic career to pure enjoyment through appreciation and learning.
While artists will be the core source of such knowledge and ideas, this podcast will go beyond and reach out to anybody in a position to provide insights that can serve as tools for growth and empowerment.
With this in mind, I am thrilled to start this show by talking to Tricia Tunstall. Tricia is an expert in "El Sistema", a system pioneered by Maestro José Antonio Abreu in Venezuela in the seventies. El Sistema-inspired movement now includes over 380 separate programs in over 65 countries, with almost one million participating young people.
Tricia has written and co-authored several books, most notably "Changing Lives: Gustavo Dudamel, El Sistema, and the Transformative Power of Music" and "Playing for Their Lives: The Global El Sistema Movement for Social Change Through Music".
Tricia is also involved as Executive Editor in "The World Ensemble" and "The Ensemble Newsletter".
If you are a young musician, who is looking for opportunities to grow your career and have a positive impact on other people's lives, I strongly encourage you to visit these resources, and also check out Sistema Connect, for opportunities to connect with Sistema-related initiatives.
Thanks for listening, I hope you enjoy the conversation with Tricia.
