Free Music ROUND 2
We're working to make sure every child has the chance to see themselves in the music they play - from the very beginning.
Free Music for your School
Transformative change can only occur when the lack of diverse representation is addressed. We’re helping educators and composers to create classrooms that look, feel, and sound like the students they teach!
The United Sound Composer Project is giving away over $20,000 of free music by minoritized composers to teachers who are unable to acquire this music for their bands and orchestras.
