September 26, 2015 at Cal Performances in Berkeley.
This film about the rise of El Sistema in the US, directed by musical evangelist Jamie Bernstein and Elizabeth King, is an in-depth, verité-based look at three schoolchildren — two in West Philadelphia and one in New York City’s Harlem — as they participate in a pair of Sistema-inspired youth orchestra programs. Followed by a talk with the directors. Free and open to the public; advanced registration is highly encouraged. RSVP list opens September 8, 2015.
