The dedicated musicians that devote so much of themselves to fostering these talented Eastside young people have my sincerest admiration. The arts are as essential as air to our students and their lives will blossom as they use and enrich their talents. I am pleased that our communities rally to make music a traditional part of life.
Christine O. Gregoire,
- Governor, State of Washington
Since 1964 our program has provided instrumental music experience to match the ability levels of talented youth from early elementary grades through their college years.
Our students come from more than 20 cities, towns, and suburbs in King, Snohomish, and Pierce counties in the state of Washington. They come from private, public, and home school environments.
They come to make MUSIC. They come to make friends.
They come to have fun!
We hope that you like our new-look website - email us if you have any suggestions for improvement. We'll be adding new content all the time, so keep checking back!
