Description
Reframing El Sistema: A Conference Connecting the Evolving Practice and Research of Social Impact Through Music is a conference that aims to reveal how our various speakers, panel members, moderators, and participants have come to reframe (re-envision, reimagine, etc.) their thinking on the goals and practices of Sistema-inspired and alternative socially-driven music programs. The event, which will value conversation over presentation, is an opportunity to facilitate meaningful dialogue between program leaders, researchers, teachers, funders, and other stakeholders to think deeply on many of the challenges we face and to embrace individuals with different perspectives as co-collaborators.
Featured Speakers:
– Shirley Brice Heath, Brown University & Stanford University Emeritus
– Dennie Palmer Wolf, WolfBrown Principal Researcher
– Jonathan Govias, University of North Carolina- Charlotte
