Organizations We’ve Partnered With To #MakeMusicInclusive
Wavy Awards
Helping us amplify voices in the music industry
New York City — The music industry has been making the long — overdue transition to a more equitable model and brighter future, and The Wavy Awards is here to put a bow on it! The collective movement towards proportional representation will happen this fall with a can’t-miss red-carpet event. We’re here to ratify a new vision for celebrating historically excluded artists with a blood pact we call: The Wavy Awards.
College Greenlight by EAB
Helping our students succeed
College Greenlight is the leading college admissions ally for underrepresented students and the counselors, advisors, community-based organizations, and schools supporting them. College Greenlight provides free tools and resources to simplify the college and scholarship search and bridges the information gap to connect underrepresented students with unprecedented opportunities.
Through The Staff
Helping our students succeed
We believe that every child should have the right to access free, consistent music education. By breaking down the systemic barriers in the music education field that block young musicians from accessing musical resources, we are working to make that vision a reality.
At Through the Staff, we connect students from 2nd-12th grade to weekly virtual private lessons taught by talented conservatory and university musicians across the United States — all for free.
Black Classical Music Educators
BCME is helping us reach educators and students
Black Classical Music Educators is an online space that makes it easy for both parents of young aspiring musicians, and adult students interested in sharpening their music skills, to easily secure private lessons with a Black classical music educator. It is also a community for Black classical music educators to find and professionally engage with each other. We offer private lessons in every instrument of the orchestra, as well as voice, piano, composition, music theory, and conducting.
ARTivism
ARTivism is a diverse collection of musicians and artists in pursuit of a more just and equitable society. Created in response to the Black Lives Matter Movement, but committed to sustained social advocacy, we transform virtual performances into meaningful change by donating proceeds to charitable causes. Driven by the values of equity and activism, we empower artists and audiences to contribute towards positive and actionable social progress.
