In Harmony Liverpool is one of three pilot music intervention programmes in England inspired by the Venezuelan El Sistema initiative. Led by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, the programme uses the symphony orchestra as a means of engaging young children (aged 4 years upwards) in orchestral music education and performance, as part of the Sistema philosophy of working with children from the most deprived parts of the country. Since February 2009, the commissioned evaluation of In Harmony Liverpool has consistently indicated positive impacts of the scheme upon participating children, families and the community as a whole. These include indicators such as educational attainment, community wellbeing, social capital and civic engagement. The In Harmony Liverpool Research Network will bring together a national and international community of interest to explore these emerging findings in greater depth, and consider the causal relationships between early years musical interventions and their social and economic impacts upon communities, including a closer consideration of the role of music education and different approaches to it; the ways in which cultural capital is developed in communities and the value of cultural interventions; the potential for longer term social, cultural and economic impacts in relation to lifelong wellbeing and community resilience. Across all of these themes, the network will also discuss questions raised about cultural value, its comparative impact and measurement, especially as an alternative to other community interventions and capital investment initiatives. This will be achieved via a series of workshop events, digital communications and a full-day conference, each designed to encourage the development of longer-term collaborative research opportunities.

In Harmony Liverpool 是英国三个试点音乐干预项目之一，其灵感来自委内瑞拉的 El Sistema 倡议。该项目由皇家利物浦爱乐乐团领导，利用交响乐团作为吸引幼儿（4 岁以上）参与管弦乐教育和表演的手段，这是 Sistema 与来自该国最贫困地区的儿童合作的理念的一部分。自 2009 年 2 月以来，“和谐利物浦”委托评估一直表明该计划对参与的儿童、家庭和整个社区产生了积极影响。其中包括教育程度、社区福祉、社会资本和公民参与等指标。和谐利物浦研究网络将汇集国内外感兴趣的社区，更深入地探索这些新发现，并考虑早期音乐干预及其对社区的社会和经济影响之间的因果关系，包括更仔细地考虑音乐教育的作用和不同的方法；文化资本在社区中发展的方式以及文化干预的价值；与终身福祉和社区复原力相关的长期社会、文化和经济影响的潜力。在所有这些主题中，该网络还将讨论有关文化价值、其比较影响和衡量的问题，特别是作为其他社区干预和资本投资举措的替代方案。这将通过一系列研讨会活动、数字通信和全天会议来实现，每一项活动都旨在鼓励发展长期合作研究机会。
