This program is an inclusive after-school orchestra program that seeks to effect social change through the pursuit of musical excellence. El Sistema focuses on children with the fewest resources and greatest need and is delivered at no cost to participants.

The mission of the Sistema Winnipeg program philosophy is to promote the collective practice of music through symphony orchestras in order to help children and young people achieve their full potential and create social change in their community.”
