Haiti's New Youth Orchestra Inspired by Venezuela's El Sistema

President Martelly officiated at the first performance of the Orchestra of the National Music Institute of Haiti (INAMUH) in Hinche. The audience watched a performance given by children from the Hinche training academy.

The launch of INAMUH occurred in Jacmel with Venezuelan President Canino present, whose El Sistema youth orchestra is the prototype for Haiti's new youth orchestra.

Four centers of INAMUH have been established in Haiti: Hinche, Jacmel, and two in Port-au-Prince.
