Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

Orchestra - The Musicopia String Orchestra, an out-of-school music education initiative, serves students throughout the greater Philadelphia area who lack creative outlets for expression. Most MSO members cannot afford private music lessons, and receive minimal, if any, instrumental instruction in school. A welcoming home for students of various instrumental skill levels, the MSO requires a serious, long-term musical commitment on the part of student participants. In addition to the weekly full orchestra rehearsals, supplemental activities include intensive chamber coaching for advanced students and various collaborations with guest performers.

Activity 3

Bridge to Music - Bridge to Music brings the many benefits of music education to schools whose music programs have been decimated or eliminated due to budget cuts. The North Philadelphia schools that we currently serve are ranked at or near the bottom of the city's ranking using such measures as test scores, incidents of violence, absenteeism, and drop-out rates. Musicopia offers residencies, all-school assemblies, and workshops by selected teaching artists, and an after-school Drumline ensemble.
