Dantes Rameau

<p>I am a social entrepreneur using music as a vehicle to change the world.&nbsp;</p> <p>I've always been interested in using my art to uplift youths and communities. This passion led me to discover El Sistema, a monumental youth orchestra and choir system that inspires social change through music in Venezuela.</p> <p>Around the same time the New England Conservatory of Music announced the Sistema Fellows at NEC, a post-graduate training program for musicians who want to lead the El Sistema movement in the United States and beyond. As a Sistema Fellow I got to spend two months in Venezuela working within El Sistema.</p> <p>In 2010 I co-founded the Atlanta Music Project, a non-profit organization that provides intense music education for at-risk youth right in their neighborhood. Led by an amazing group of talented Teaching Artists, the Atlanta Music Project serves 150 children everyday during school.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm thrilled that Aisha Bowden (Sistema Fellows '12) has joined the Atlanta Music Project to lead&nbsp;<em>AMPlify</em>, our new choir program. Help us raise $20,000 by supporting our IndieGoGo campaign to launch <em>AMPlify </em>clicking here: <a href="../../amplify">http://www.indiegogo.com/amplify</a>&nbsp;</p>
