ABOUT MUSICOPIA

Founded by a string quartet in 1974, Musicopia is a leader in revitalizing school music programs in Greater Philadelphia, providing equitable access to music programming. Through a roster of 150+ professional ensembles/ solo musicians, it helps students learn to play an instrument and perform alongside enthusiastic peers through in-school and community-based assemblies, workshops, residencies, year-round music classes or musical instrument and ensemble coaching, and long-term afterschool ensembles. Musicopia’s programs represent musical styles and traditions from around the world and inspire a love of music that will last a lifetime. Its instrument donation program collects, repairs, and places donated musical instruments with students who need them the most.
