On December 21st this year the Sones Segovianos Music Education program held its end of year concert together with 14 students from the project's sister program in Palacagüina some 60Km north of Estelí. Here we post some photographs fo the activity and a couple of audio files with some of the wonderful music performed by the programs' students. We are very grateful to the Central American Fund for Human Development, the First Congregational Church of Evanston, Illinois and to the Dorchester House Multi Service Center of Boston for making these music education programs possible.
