Miami Music Project’s vision is to create opportunity and access through music for those most in need, improve the quality of life for children today, and ultimately transform their lives, the lives of their families, and their communities. Emerging as a model for music education programs nationally, Miami Music Project offers free-of-charge, after-school programming to all students with no barriers to entry, regardless of race or economic status. As of today, the Miami Music Project has reached over 30,000 children and youth across Miami-Dade County, becoming one of the largest socially transformative music initiatives in the US. Miami Music Project's programming is inspired by the El Sistema phenomenon - a new model for social change and a visionary global movement that transforms the lives of children through music. This academic year, the Miami Music Project will meet children in seven local schools, providing them with the highest-quality, immersive conservatory-level education five times a week. This support results in 100% of our senior students pursuing higher education. #MiamiMusicProject #instrumentsofchange #whentheyperformtheytransform #concert #orchestra #youthorchestra #elsistema #elsistemausa #eusa #performingarts #orchestralife #Miami #performingarts #socialimpact #changestartswithyou

About us
Miami Music Project uses music as an instrument for social transformation, empowering children to acquire values and achieve their full potential, positively affecting their society through the study and performance of music. Our motto: Composing Better Lives. Inspiration Miami Music Project is inspired by one of the most exciting initiatives in educational reform today which hails from Venezuela, where in 1974 economist and professional musician Jose Antonio Abreu launched El Sistema, a free program in classical music for young children from highly impoverished backgrounds. Since then, El Sistema has led to improvements in the social conditions of millions of children worldwide becoming a new model for social change through music and a visionary global movement that transforms the lives of children and the communities in which they live. Vision Miami Music Project seeks to serve the greater good of society and to help children develop into successful, healthy adults whose lives make a positive contribution to community and to society as a whole. Our tuition-free, intensive after-school program has a fully integrated music curriculum, which builds the transferable practical and social skills needed to improve academic motivation and classroom success. Designed as an after-school music program in Miami-Dade County, it provides hundreds of children from at-risk demographics with excellent training from professional musicians and music educators. Children are provided musical instruments free of charge. The program creates new avenues of cultural awareness in the city’s most vulnerable communities. Ultimately, by enriching the lives of individual children and creating a network of stand‐alone orchestras in Greater Miami’s most underserved communities, Miami Music Project seeks to create social change within the communities served.
