Abreu Fellows Graduate!
What a year! The Abreu Fellows shared their stories and photos in a presentation and awards ceremony at the New England Conservatory on Wednesday, June 16. We are happy to be finished, and each one of the fellows will be leaders in the El Sistema movement in the United States.
TED.com posted a wonderful blog on the ceremony, and quotes from each of the fellows on the future of El Sistema in the U.S.
The Abreu Fellows will be starting El Sistema initiatives across the U.S.:
Christine Witkowski and Dan Berkowitz with the LA Phil: YOLA
Dantes Rameau in Atlanta: Atlanta Music Project
Stanford Thompson in Philadelphia: Tune-Up Philly
Rebecca Levi and David Malek in Boston: Conservatory Lab Charter School
Lorrie Heagy in Juneau: Juneau Music Matters
Alvaro Rodas in Corona, NY: Corona Youth Music Project
I am so happy to be returning to Durham to start as Executive Director of KidZNotes on July 1. There will be so much news to follow, please stay in touch!
