The incoming New York Philharmonic chief conductor was back in Venezuela this weekend, renewing contacts with El sistema and filming a production of Beethoven’s Fidelio.

He was given all the necessary facilities by the outcast regime and by a local sponsor, Bancamiga.

With the support of Bancamiga, the Venezuelans made the Sistema room in Quebrada Honda resound with their applause, to thank the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, the Simón Bolívar National Choir and the Manos Blancas Choir, Dudamel, Arvelo and the artistic producer Gabriela Camejo the possibility they had to witness a first-rate staging.

The executive president of Bancamiga, Ariel José Martínez, said he was moved because the institution accompanied Dudamel and Arvelo in a work that exalts integration, within the framework of its strategy of social commitment and dissemination of culture.
