- The remarkable accomplishment of a great humanist, José Antonio Abreu, who dedicated his life to set up the 'Sistema' in 1975, an extraordinary music and social project which has been running in Venezuela in an attempt to transform the lives of the nations poorest children.
It has been using classical music to tackle the social problems of a country where 60% of the population live below the poverty line. By offering free instruments and tuition through a network of after-school centres all over the country, the Sistema has kept thousands of children away from the drugs, alcohol and gang-related violence of the streets and has led to the creation of 30 professional orchestras in a country that had only 2 before it started. Currently, 275,000 children attend the Sistemas schools and many of them play in one of the 125 youth orchestras.
At the pinnacle of the system stands the Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra of Venezuela under its music director Gustavo Dudamel who is himself a product of the Sistema and is also the musical director for the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra.
I actually recently met the founder of El Sistema! He is one of the most inspiring people ever and it was an honour to know him!
I am the most senior member of the English division of the Sistema orchestra. I'm now 18 and am going on a trip around the UK with my violin in march. It will be the first time in 12 years away from my orchestra family and I must say I'm nervous, but excited. I want to show the younger division what is possible for them if they work hard and carry on.
Did your performances in spring 2021 work out well? Do you still perform as a violinist? If you do, is that with or without the orchestra? Good luck! 🎻
I swear I cried. I would love to work there as a musician. It is just unbelievable, beautiful, heart-touching. To help people around the world to start their lives again, to find a purpose, to heal. Let's built a better world together! You have my full support (from Greece).
To whom it may concern
My name is Franklin Altuna from Caracas Venezuela Musician from *El Sistema* I would like to have a word to somebody. Please it is an S.O.S
@@FranklinAltunaCellistLawyer Saludos Franklin soy Venezolano estas bien? Ocurre algo? Tu mensaje preocupa que pasó?
POV: You came here for an assignment on this because you weren’t paying attention on zoom
I'll tell you, I'm part of the English sistema orchestra and it changed my life. I have been playing violin for 12 years now and I'm 18 and leaving home as a professional violinist thanks to my orchestra family. It means the world to me.
LMAO SO RELATABLE
Excelente documental. Me alegra ver plasmado el otro lado de Venezuela.
I am excited to hear about the other side of Venezuela.
Thanks for the video and the story.
And thanks to Venezuela we can bring the magic of music to many children all around the world! Almost 70 countries have developed their own version of El Sistema, like us in small Cyprus with our program, Sistema Cyprus. x
This is so inspiring. Amazing to see how music can change the lives of so many people...specially kids. This is something I feel really proud of as a Venezuelan.
what a great idea, we all need this amazing sort of human treatments by creating the love of music and in particular the great classical music in the heart of our young generations which in the end leads in to emergence of talented nations away from wars and its sequences...
L'esplosione di El Sistema dell'indimenticabile Maestro Abreu con il geniale Gustavo Dudamel e la grande Simon Bolivar!
"The World Values Survey has consistently shown Venezuelans to be among the happiest people in the world, with 55% of those questioned saying they were "very happy"." Venezuelans have gone through hell and back more than once and are a resilient people and im more than proud to be one
epic...
magic when music and love combines
Bravo José Antonio Abreu !!
Shoud have more like you !
Dios!!!! Se me pusieron los pelos de punta!!! Sobretodo al final escuchando la 3era Sinfonia de Beethoven de manos de la orquesta y Gustavo Dudamel! Que viva Venezuela carajo! Ejemplo musical y social para el mundo!!!!
Una meraviglia ascoltarli e vederli.....un'esperienza indimenticabile!!!!
Un piacere ed una commozione rivedere come è nato El Sistema dalla mente geniale del Maestro Abreu....Indimenticabile!!!!
Inspiración y gran obra de un genio, que supo ayudar a nuestra niñez y juventud!! , tan grande como Mozart, Beethoven ,choppin .. Orgullo venezolano
Fantastic! This brought tears to my eyes. I strongly agree that when young people have an investment in their lives and in their societies, they will value both and do whatever they can to build them strong. It does my heart good to see this happening in a place I love so much, Latin America.

@luverlything That is the way I remember Venezuelans..people with lots of passion for anything they did.. Outstanding!!!
Such passion & joy for all to behold
The seeds of new life in great beauty unfold
Amazing orchestra
Proud to know some people in this fantastic movement :) God bless them and the great things they do!
Remarkable... ABREU should get the nobel prize!!
What an amazingly inspiring story...
Exelente forma de cambiar el mundo futuro por medio de la musica Felicidades y adelante ojala en todos los paises hisieran lo mismo 👏👏👏👏
So proud of these Venezuelan children! Unfortunately there are many poor people in Venezuela because of the corruption of the government. Thanks to the Lord because the spirit cannot be broken!
fantastic!!! great music and great musicians!
Gracias....truly an inspiration for our entire world.
simplemente guauuu que bueno y que padre o que bien que hay personas que ayudan sobre todo alos niños y a los jóvenes de Venezuela a ser gente de provecho o de bien y enseñados o guiados por uno de los mejores maestros Gustavo dudamel bien por ti chiquito
Venezuela 3000 anni avanti con l'educazione musicale, impressionante
I was proudly born in Venezuela my friend. I know what I am talking about. My first two children were born there.
INCREIBLE GRACIAS !!
Dudamel est un magicien!
The work of Abreu started many years before there was an American hating president. As a matter of fact Abrae is a doctor in Economics and his work has nothing to do with Politics. The work he does is actually a good way of integrating poor children into a higher educated society and preserving capitalism. Unfortunately there were not more people like him sooner in that country to prevent what happened there. Great work maestro and god bless your work and these Venezuelan Children.
Esto si es revolucionario!!!
Gracias a José A Abreu y Gustavo D, y a los jovenes que con pasion ponen el nombre de Venezuela en alto.
¡Felicitaciones!
Nice work
in my opinion, the interpretation was great and exciting. It seems to me fascinating and very interesting❤
This is great..........BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The art of music is never the fault; the brilliance is in its many makers
I like Gustavo Dudamel's style and his contribution to music world!
the next music renaissance is happening in venezuela.
i need to go to venezuela someday.
we think this video is very entertaining ,emotional , “ we believe is important to save the cultural tradition of a country. it has a role model
José Antonio Abreu inspires me..
This is magical.
Fantástico... si todos pusiésemos de nuestra parte, si la voluntad y los recursos en cada país, en cada comunidad, en cada hogar se dispusiera para facilitar el proceso artístico y creativo de la infancia y la juventud, toda su energía se vertería en la fuente inagotable del arte. Su espíritu brillaría a través de lo que es posible dar y recibir y multiplicar con todas las manifestaciones posibles de éste. Felicitaciones por tan magnífica labor. Nosotros seguiremos moviendo nuestra intención y nuestras acciones para propiciar que en nuestro entorno esto, deje de ser un sueño... gracias!
RIP Maestro ABREU
Grandioso Maestro Dudamel eres un gran orgullo de latinoamerica para el Mundo
What a celebration of life and joy!
simply great.
Have a great summer!
lindo d+
Ok the record shows I ran across the genius who God put in charge of this extraordinary group of musicians. Youngsters who elsewhere would be mere elementary students. Any mortal with half a brain knows it's their Conductor whose
Thank you. Truly amazing work. "...towards a common goal..." Thank you for posting this.
Such blessing for all. Magnificent El Sistema!
But its not too late to go to venezuela someday. I also plan to do that.
I think to triple the project to one million students is the plan for the next decade. The long-term plan is to give cultural education to ALL venezualan children. I want to go to Venezuela as soon as possible to help them with that goal!
Bravo Venezuela!! Unfortunately, in the USA, one of THE richest counties in the world, young musicians are left to fend for themselves (assuming their parents have some extra bucks in the bank for lessons, etc). Music in the schools (with programs being cut left and right) is just considered a hobby. In Venezuela it is a symbol of national pride and not only do the children receive free training, but the instruments are subsidized as well (probably borrowed between generations). Given that 70% of the children come from poor families there is no way they can afford 5 to 30 thousand dollar instruments such as bassoons, harps, Tubas, etc. It would be interesting to know how many of the kids continue once they return their instruments after finishing high school.
Il miracolo di El Sistema!!!!!
Fantastico EL SISTEMA!
Hi axter! Hope you're reading this. I'm Ana, 26 Venezuela, and I'm currently doing my MA in London. I'm doing a presentation on El sistema for my Uni and I'd like to use this video! Do you have any link where I can download it in .avi format? Thanks!!!!
Hi Ana!
Were you able to download and use this video? I am in the same boat as you and I'm concerned about 2 things in using this for my presentation: copyright and video quality.
arXter, is it possible to use this video in a presentation about El Sistema?
Thanks in advance!
Same request here!
@arXter: pueden, por favor habilitar los subtítulos para traducir al español
praise the Lord
♡♡♡!
Which piece is it? At minute 2:41 with Gustavo... Does anyone knows?
Is this work being continuous in Venezuela?
what is the title of the song at 2:45
?
any one know the name of the song at 3:23?
It's "Danzón N° 2" from Arturo Márquez.
2022
Arturo Márquez' Danzón No. 2.
WOW! But the only thing I didnt like in this documentary was that played Beethoven's Eroica (3rd symphony) at the end played by the most famous "Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra" (I think so) while showing pictures of the children's orchestras as if they also were already playing in the quality the best Venezuelan orchestra does...
💞💗🌹‼️
welcome to The US Gustavo Dudamel.
You're right, we need you !
there's nothing like music to celebrate life itself...
@reinux
Too late it has already happened. These kids will have children of their own, some day in their future, and just imagine what they will produce, and how Venezuela will become a cultural superpower.
Plans are to triple music for poor children to one million students. A symphony orchestra in each village in Venezuela.
En Vzla nacieron muchos espíritus de Luz muy altos, por eso esta siendo atacada por entidades oscuras.
El Sistema del Maestro Abreu ha tenido mucho más soporte, recursos y hasta sede propia justamente es en el gobierno actual, ya que los anteriores nunca le dieron la importancia que merecía dicho Sistema, de hecho, cada año le asignaban dinero en los presupuestos pero nunca llegaban o simplemente eran casi limosnas. Lo anterior es solo una aclaratoria sin ánimos de crear controversias políticas, solamente creo que es justo decirlo.
Con orgullo venezolano... saludos a todos
What's the music starts at 1:32 ?
Danzón N°2 - Arturo Márquez
Excelent video but instead naming it "how music SAVED Venezuela's children, i'd call it how music HELPED Venezuela's children, sounds better, the first way sounds like kids are being shot day after day, despite that, thank you for posting it, shows the good face of my country.
beiker7 dying isn't the only way to lose your life... To live a life not worth living, is to experience hell beyond any conception of the afterlife
Additionally, considering the economic value of this investment, it was no less than a miracle - could you have done better in pulling a state out of poverty?
you can download sofewere called "free studio" there you can download youtube videos. im not an advitiser, so trust me when itell you i didnt get a virus when i downloaded it.

There's only one problem with this video, it was made 11 years ago and the wonderful children are likely standing in bread lines or scavenging for whatever food they can find today. A lot has changed since then......
esta es la forma como venezuela lucha contra la delincuencia this is the way president maduro fihgt agains the delincuency
A real solution for saving lives and humanity right here.
Absolutely inspiring! I'd sell my soul to the devil to be at a live concert of this group.
@MrGtsouk i guess u r studying at deree college...;)
Finally something positive about Venezuela and obviously Chavez had no much to do with it !!!!
Individuals can achieve a certain amount, but cooperation achieves a far greater result. This is socialism at it's best.
No Socialism, it is Democracy! Since 1978 exists the System!
ESPERO CUANDO AYA UN CAMBIO EN EL GOBIERNO NO APAREZCAN TERMITAS EXTERMINADORAS PORQUE NO FALTAN.
I must say that I am surprised that such racist hate speech could come from the heart of a fellow lover of gardening and classical music... I would think that watching God's creation grow and listening to the music of some of God's most talented musicians would soften your heart and give you more love for your fellow man... may your heart soften so that you can measure a man's worth not by his race or country of birth, but by his words and deeds.
and what country are you from? those are words of someone from the USA, who thinks that you live in a wonder place. there is poverty in all countries, but the poverty in the USA is growing faster than any other nation. you forget that the poverty level of this nation was much worse, it has gotten better over the past 30 years, which speaks volumes. they have free healthcare, and the literacy rate has improved greatly. the difference between them and us, they have pride.

Disculpe esta forma de contactarte, pero el tiempo no me deja la opción, sé que este mensaje te vendrá de sorpresa ya que no nos conocíamos, pero la gracia de Dios me dirigió hacia ti y me gustaría que lo leyeras. cuidadosamente mi mensaje.
En resumen, mi nombre es Zambrano Adelinda de origen italiano y vivo en Francia. Padezco una enfermedad grave que me condena a una muerte segura: es cáncer de garganta. Tengo una suma de 350 .000 euros que me gustaría hacer una donación a una persona honesta y de confianza para que use el 50% de este dinero para ayudar a los pobres de su entorno, el resto le volverá a ella, porque es en ti Dios me dirigió .
Soy dueña de un negocio de venta de vehículos usados y perdí a mi esposo hace 3 años lo cual me afectó mucho y no he podido volver a casarme hasta el día de hoy. , no tuvimos hijos.
Me gustaría donar esta cantidad antes de mi muerte ya que mis días están contados por falta de esta enfermedad para la cual no tengo cura, luego quisiera saber si ustedes pueden beneficiarse de esta donación.
Dada mi situación actual, no suelo iniciar sesión en TH-cam, así que comuníquese conmigo por correo electrónico para obtener más detalles: gradelinda548@gmail.com
.Gracias
If you were only as careful with what went into your mind as what goes into your belly... I must say that I am surprised that such racist hate speech comes from a fellow lover of gardening and classical music. I would hope that watching the wonder of God's creation and listening to music composed by some of God's most gifted creations would soften your heart and help you to be more loving and understanding of your fellow man.
Is this in reference to the us gov? or North Korea?
he looks like my uncle omega lol not really
You are wrong. Maestro Abreu is an ardent supporter of Chavez. Its on TH-cam see for yourself.
Viva Venezuela Muera chavez !!!!
Unfortunately the narcogovernment, has been in charge of destroying this great musical movement, considered as the best of its kind in the world
Quickest way to ruin an uplifting TH-cam clip?
Read the comment stream.
The poverty in Venezuela is caused by the US sanctions on that country. Another war crime from a country which has caused so much misery.
