- This monograph is the first in-depth study of the internationally renowned music education programme El Sistema. Its length reflects its analysis of an extensive range of sources including a year of fieldwork data, online ethnography, previously unstudied documents and articles from Venezuela, and music journalism in English and Spanish. It sits between ethnomusicology and music education research, but also crosses over into other disciplines including sociology, development studies, and politics. Alongside the ethnography, the book covers the programme’s history (dating back to 1975) and pre-history (back to the colonial period) and brings in comparisons from three continents.
