MY HEART: Participation in Seminars and Professional Training    

Abreu Fellows Program

The Abreu Fellows is a one-year postgraduate certificate program for accomplished young musicians and music educators who desire to become ambassadors of El Sistema and who are committed to developing the music education miracle outside of Venezuela. Housed at New England Conservatory, Abreu Fellows will spend a year studying between Boston and Caracas, and leave with the tools to return to their communities to implement the El Sistema model.

Philadelphia Orchestra School Partnership Program

The Philadelphia Orchestra School Partnership Program establishes an ongoing, in-depth relationship with partnering schools. Through this program, the music teaching artist cultivates students' knowledge and love of instrumental music, develops students' perceptive and creative skills and helps parents and teachers bring music into their homes and classrooms. This program will help bring a new generation of students that explore the world through their creativity.

Careers in Music Performance:
Convening Student Perspectives and Creating Models for the 21st Century

[ Read the Overtones article ]

The Shepherd School officially launched a national effort to reset students' definition of career success. Students and faculty from the most highly respected music training institutions in the U.S. attended.

"The forum opened my eyes and showed me completely new ways to think creatively in my performing, programming and presenting. Hearing perspectives from students all around the country assured me that I am not alone in thinking creatively and attempting to accomplish the unconventional. Music goes far beyond recreating what has already been mastered by generations of prolific performers. The most important element of a prolific performer is one who can immerse a listener into the musical process."
