Learning about classical music just got more fun with the launch of Intermezzo, a weekday podcast from Interlochen Public Radio hosted by and for young listeners.

Are you curious how you can use music to make a difference for patients, families, and caregivers in healthcare settings?

In honor of El Sistema’s 50th anniversary, LiberaMusica and publisher Carthusia Edizioni are releasing Tumpa Cu-Cù, a new book introducing young children to ensemble music.

At events like these, it’s easy to think about the word “community” as the people in the room. But El Sistema USA’s nifty trick was to upend that idea. Rather than celebrate our professional community—the connections we form with colleagues—the ESUSA leadership team explored the ties that bind us to larger, more diverse communities—of families, of activists, of scientists, of lawmakers, and of the folks that lawmakers tend to ignore.

When you hear the phrase “social change through music,” what comes to mind? For many in our field, it means ensembles of student musicians learning to play and sing together.

Sometimes, though, it can mean people of all ages coming together and forging new communities of belonging through music. That’s the nature of my organization: Lavender Light, in New York City.

Big Noise Raploch recently embarked on a big experiment…by handing over their jobs to students as part of their “Big Takeover.”

Many of us have witnessed the arts’ positive impact on the health and wellbeing of our communities. The Jameel Arts & Health Lab invites you to share your experiences as a practitioner, educator, or researcher as part of their annual symposium “Re-Imagining Health Through the Arts” on September 22 at New York University.

European musicians and music organizations are invited to attend the 13th annual European Forum on Music in Brussels (June 11–12) under the banner of “Celebrating Musical Diversity.”
