The provincial government is investing $120,000 to establish an innovative, community-based program to use music as a means to nurture youths and to instil in them such positive values as discipline, teamwork and confidence. The provincial government is making this investment to establish Sistema New Brunswick, a provincewide program that will draw upon the strengths of the New Brunswick Youth Orchestra (NBYO) to influence children positively through music.
