Changing Lives by Tricia Tunstall
Reminds us of how arts education can change lives. Gary Stager, Huffington Post
"Essential reading for every one of us who cares passionately about our neediest children" -- Quincy Jones "Starred Review. This passionate and inspiring story should be read by all those interested in music education, community building, and advocacy for the disadvantaged. An essential purchase." "We are fortunate to have the story of El Sistema related so eloquently." -- Deborah Borda, president and CEO, Los Angeles Philharmonic "Tunstall soundly probes how it is that classical music has played such a powerful role in the protection, education, and elevation of so many children born into poverty. The author does a noble job tracing the history of El Sistema, while managing to keep the narrative as much in the immediate present as possible."
Tricia Tunstall is the author of Changing Lives: Gustavo Dudamel, El Sistema, and the Transformative Power of Music and Note by Note: A Celebration of the Piano Lesson. A leading advocate for the importance of music education in children’s development, she consults with El Sistema programs in the United States and internationally.
