The Musical Access Program and SOUNDS Academy are initiatives that serve as powerful bridges between children and the world of music, fostering inspiration, education, and personal growth.
The Musical Access Program takes a hands-on approach to introducing children to the magic of music. Through live performances and Instrument Petting Zoos, children are not only exposed to the sounds of various instruments but also have the opportunity to engage with them firsthand. This exposure is a stepping stone that sparks curiosity and a desire to explore music further. By allowing children to interact with instruments, the program piques their interest and encourages them to discover their musical talents and preferences.
SOUNDS Academy’s approach goes beyond just introducing music. By bringing performers and music professionals to schools, the program offers students a chance to witness live music performances, which can be incredibly inspiring and emotionally impactful. However, the impact doesn’t stop there. The musicians also share their personal stories, emphasizing the importance of qualities like creativity, leadership, perseverance, resilience, teamwork, and the pursuit of higher education. These life lessons are delivered through the lens of music, making them relatable and memorable.
