Sweet sounds of success

The Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Conservatory of Music is working with the Joe Chithalen Memorial Instrument Lending Library (Joe카지노 게임 컬렉션�s MILL) and First Avenue Public School to launch Sistema Kingston. The after-school music program for at-risk children focuses on positive social change through the pursuit of musical excellence.

Sistema Kington emphasizes inclusivity and teamwork through its free, group-centred music instruction.  The program, designed to foster creativity and personal responsibility, is based on the Venezuelan model, a publicly financed volunteer music education program.
