SUPPORT LACO'S MUSIC EDUCATION PROGRAM: MEET THE MUSIC

LACO's commitment to music education in the schools parallels our artistic mission. Our educational programming is dubbed "Meet the Music" (MTM).

Meet the Music aims to bring accessible and exciting performances of classical and contemporary music to communities across LA. We do this through programming that ranges from school composition classes taught by our Teaching Artists to masterclasses with visiting guest artists, which are free of charge and open to the public. Our Family Day activations provide free interactive activities and performances for children of all ages.

Meet the Music is supported by Akilah Morgan, Meet the Music Administrator. Morgan was a founding member of the Inner City Youth Orchestra Los Angeles (ICYOLA), and her passion is to provide youth from her community access to a wealth of musical knowledge and experiences that might generally be unavailable to them.

LACO is thrilled to have such stellar partners to reimagine the creative scope and joy of in-person music.

Our school composition program will include musical workshops with in- class performances from LACO musicians alongside interactive musical workshops led by our Teaching Artists. We aim to both provide engaging arts education directly to young students while bringing LACO's world-class artistry into classrooms throughout Los Angeles.
