These interactive concerts are desig ned to stimulate elementary student interest and involvement in music. Programs provide children and families with an enjoyable experience while exploring music and its cultural significance. Concerts often involve collaborations between volunte er ensembles, speakers, conductors, instrumentalists, artists, actors, and dancers. Oberlin area children who are interested in music but whose families are unable to afford lessons.
Students are able to receive college credit for volunteering their time.
Since some students do not have access to instruments, the Coalition continues to acquire a collection of instruments to be loaned to students who are involved in the Lesson Program. The Coalition is always looking for instruments to be donated in order to supplement this program. Many students have traveled to local schools to showcase their instruments, give small concerts, and talk with children about their instruments and about music in general. If you are a local teacher that is interested in having workshops at your school, please call or email with your request.
