For 15 years, the Harmony Program has been changing lives through music. They provide musical instruments and music education to children in New York City's most underserved neighborhoods and within diverse communities often underrepresented in classical music. Each year, the organization inspires approximately 1,000 youth by supporting students in music fluency, social-emotional learning, confidence building, peer connections, and creative expression. Throughout the "boroughs" (neighborhoods) of Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens, the Harmony Program offers in-school and after-school music classes, as well as weekend and summer learning opportunities. The Fonds K pour la Musique supports the Harmony Program Youth Orchestra (HPYO) system. HPYO is a system of ensembles that allow young musicians, including beginner and advanced students, to extend their music learning through weekend rehearsals, master classes, and public performances throughout New York City.
