Speaking of new websites, my friends and colleagues Eric Booth and Tricia Tunstall have launched one, too. It houses the newsletters of the international El Sistema movement. It's called The Ensemble, and you can find newsletters with info about programs in both the U.S. and the world. They are working on a new book about the international efforts to bolster youth orchestras for young people in poverty, and they are tireless advocates for the work. Visit the site, read their books (Eric's The Music Teaching Artist's Bible is our text for the Arts in Education course at Juilliard, and Changing Lives is Tricia's chronicle of the El Sistema movement), and join me in wishing them a happy new year!
