El Sistema Somerville is a daily, intensive, after school orchestra program housed in the East Somerville Community School that is inspired by the Venezuelan program that utilizes music as a vehicle for social change. Young musicians from El Sistema Somerville are joined by other members of Somerville String Camp on stage for ArtBeat 2013 to perform musical selections we have been working on in camp this summer!
