MUSIC EDUCATION

Not everyone has the opportunity to learn how to play an instrument or even own one. That’s why the Detroit Symphony Orchestra is holding an instrument drive to give the gift of music to students from Detroit.

A new music program for elementary school students is debuting at Allen Elementary.

The Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra recently donated numerous music supplies to the student band at Ypsilanti Community High School.

DETROIT – Rapper J-Dilla was a luminary in the world of hip-hop and a Detroit native. That led to a special moment at Detroit Central High School Tuesday. That’s why Dixon applied for the Save the Music J Dilla Music Tech Grant and received the $50,000 equipment grant for his digital music program. The grant presented by the nonprofit Save the Music and Cadillac increases the tools for music making. More information on the Save the Music J Dilla Music Tech Grant can be found here.
