The Joshua Tree Branch Library is screening an inspirational, award-winning documentary film, “Tocar y Luchar — To Play and to Fight,” on Saturday September 28, at 3 p.m. It is the story of the Venezuelan Youth Orchestra System. Originally, the System was designed to expose rural children to the wonders of music. In its almost 40 years of existence, it has engaged millions of Venezuelan youth in music, and currently claims 125 orchestras and an attendance of over 300,000 children in its music schools. Among its products is Gustavo Dudamel, the current conductor of the L.A. Philharmonic. The System has been copied in over 50 locales in this country. The film will be hosted by Rich Gerston of Joshua Tree. Light refreshments will be served by the Friends of the Joshua Tree Library.
