Описание: SIDE BY SIDE BY EL SISTEMA

The international music youth camp Side by Side by El Sistema 2016 will be taking place 15-18 June in Gothenburg, as it has the preceeding two years. The camp is growing rapidly: last year it gathered over 3000 young people from 16 countries.

From 2016 and onwards the camp is organized by the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra in close collaboration with the foundation El Sistema Sweden. El Sistema is a program created in 1975 by economist and musician José Antonio Abreu in Venezuela with the vision that music can help to develop and create positive social change in children´s life. El Sistema is part of the social mobilization that is essential in places where segregation has limited the opportunities for human development.

At the Side by Side by El Sistema global music youth camp in Gothenburg children and young people from all over the world meet to play in the orchestra, sing in a choir, create and develop. Parents and families are also welcome to participate in the camp. Participants rehearse, socialize and celebrate the last day of camp with a magnificent concert playing and singing alongside musicians with the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra. In addition, the participants meet exciting performers and artists leading workshops and rehearsals. They inspire each other, develop together and gain new skills.

Side by Side by El Sistema is a part of the long run preparation and celebration of Gothenburg’s 400-year anniversary in 2021. Children and young people from all over the world meet each year to sing, play and learn with loads of fun. Our goal is to unite 30,000 participants through Side by Side by El Sistema in 2021 and create the world’s largest music youth camp.

With music as hub for creativity and passion we build bridges across people, culture and continents.
