2012 - In Harmony Sistema England

Julian continues to lead In Harmony Sistema England, the English community programme inspired by Venezuela’s hugely successful El Sistema.

Projects are underway in Liverpool, Lambeth and Norwich and in all three areas Head Teachers are reporting greatly increased levels of attendance, self discipline and motivation amongst the pupils.

As part of the National Plan for Music Education, the Department for Education and Arts Council England have announced additional funding that will allow the In Harmony Sistema England programme to be expanded to other disadvantaged areas of England during 2012.
