		</div><p>Thousands of Venezuelan musicians, most of them youngsters, have earned the title of the world’s largest orchestra.</p>
<p>Guinness World Records announced the 8,573 musicians, all connected to the country’s network of youth orchestras, earned the designation with a performance a week earlier of Tchaikovsky’s Slavonic March.</p>
<p>The musicians, ranging in age from 12 to 77, attempted the record during a patriotic concert at a military academy in the capital of Caracas.</p>
<p>To set the record, more than 8,097 had to be tallied playing at the same time during a five-minute period of Tchaikovsky’s piece.</p>
<p>The network of orchestras known as El Sistema, or The System, assembled some 12,000 musicians for the concert.</p>
<p>The repertoire included Venezuela by Pablo Herrero and Jose Luis Armenteros, the South American country’s national anthem and Pedro Gutierrez’s Alma Llanera, which Venezuelans consider their unofficial anthem.</p>
<p>More than 250 supervisors were each assigned a group of musicians to observe during the record attempt.</p>
<p>The previous record belonged to a Russian group that played that country’s national anthem.</p>
