Deborah Borda, President and CEO of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, introduces YOLA, the LA Phil’s version of the tremendously successful Venezuelan music education program, El Sistema.
Through Gustavo Dudamel's Youth Orchestra LA (YOLA) program – inspired by Venezuela's revolutionary El Sistema – the LA Phil and its community partners provide free instruments, intensive music training, and academic support to over 600 students from underserved neighborhoods, empowering them to become vital citizens, leaders, and agents of change.
