The purpose of this research was to investigate citizenship education at an El-Sistema-inspired youth orchestra program. This was an explanatory instrumental case study designed to elicit a nuanced view of perspectives and approaches to citizenship education in one context of music teaching and learning. I chose this orchestra as an illustrative case of citizenship education given the program's explicit mission: to educate students as citizens through intensive ensemble-based music instruction. Throughout one academic year, I conducted observations of the program's routine activities and engaged with five participants in biweekly individual and focus group interviews as well as processes of member reflection. One program director, two instructors, and two student participants contributed data that illuminated the phenomenon of citizenship education within the case.Primary themes related to participants' perspectives on citizenship education included expectations for individual development via musical and intrapersonal skills. Additionally, program participants discussed possible instruments of wider social and community change through long-term program outcomes. I employed the categories of legalism, or following laws, and communitarianism, or helping others, to analyze perspectives and program practices relevant to citizenship education. Based on this analysis, I provide evidence that highlights the potential tensions that arose among the largely communitarian ideals espoused by participants in interviews and the primarily legalistic tradition inherited by the program's connection to El Sistema and Western classical music education. While exploring this phenomenon within a single organization allowed me to generate a thick description of participants' views and activities, examination of multiple cases might further illuminate or define concepts related to citizenship education in music education contexts. Further, exploration of these topics in settings not related to El Sistema might help to clarify initiatives aimed at citizenship education outside of what is an increasingly controversial tradition.
