Bravo Youth Orchestras is an organization which this year implemented the “El Sistema” method of music education in North Portland.
For the past school year, Bravo has been in action at one of the city’s poorest elementary schools, and in this episode of “On Deck” we’ll listen in to the progress these young kids have made, and hear how music is changing their lives.
Carlos Kalmar (center left back row) and Seth Truby pose for a photo with the Bravo kids in May 2014. The three young musicians featured in this segment are Apple (front row, hands on hips), Benedicte (behind Apple with a yellow piece of paper in her hand), and Adajion (far right, striped jacket).
