El Sistema - a film by Paul Smaczny & Maria Stodtmeier

El Sistema - a film by Paul Smaczny & Maria Stodtmeier



Trailer from the film about this year's winner of the Glenn Gould Prize, Antonio Abreu, founder of EL SISTEMA. We need this kind of inspiration in Canada, not only to give a prize, but to implement this kind of dedication to culture. Let's not let this moment pass. There is an obvious contradiction between C...anada giving a Canadian Prize for such an initiative for obvious social and cultural good while our government continues to cut at the root of the tree that Mr. Abreu has built. Thanks to the Glenn Gould Foundation for making this clear statement about the essential value of art and music!
