For many urban and disadvantaged youth the vast benefits of music education simply do not exist. Many have never touched, handled or played a musical instrument, as budgets for music education often quickly disappear from the hierarchy of needs. Help support our youth!

The importance of music education cannot be overemphasized. Research has demonstrated that music education expedites learning in other academic subjects and boosts students’ abilities useful in everyday life. Studies show that playing an instrument can improve reading and comprehension skills, math skills, language skills and IQ.
Children will benefit from small class-sizes and professional instruction. Currently violin and piano classes are offered, with future plans to add voice instruction.
Our seasonal sessions are ongoing and available to you. Pay as you are able. Music should be for everyone.
