We Know Music Education WORKS.

Harmony Project provides students K-12 with continuous, high-quality music instruction. Learning to play an instrument takes patience, persistence, and focus — the same qualities students need to excel in school and in their future careers. We support our students every step of the way to achieve their goals throughout their entire childhood.

GIVE MUSIC, CHANGE LIVES.

GIVE MUSIC, CHANGE LIVES.

Each Harmony Project student receives:

  • An instrument to take home and regular maintenance.

  • Professional music instruction, regular progress check-ins, and annual assessments.

  • Ensemble and solo performance opportunities around the world.

  • Access to scholarships, workshops, and our full-time College and Alumni Success team.

  • Our support staff connects families to the services they need to keep coming back.

Our research-based curriculum is developed to maximize the cognitive benefits of music education including improved reading skills and ability to focus in a noisy classroom.
