Wasserman Music Partners with Save The Music Foundation: A Tune of Hope
In an exciting new venture, Wasserman Music has announced a five-year partnership with Save The Music Foundation that promises to reshape music education in Los Angeles and New York. This collaboration is more than just a funding initiative; it’s a commitment to enhance the musical landscape for high school students, giving them access to valuable resources and mentorship opportunities.
The Inspirational Launch Event
The first of many events under this partnership kicked off at Warren High School in Los Angeles on October 8, where students engaged with Wasserman Music’s client, Niko Rubio. The day included a dynamic panel discussion featuring industry professionals who shared insights on what it takes to succeed in the music world. Over 150 students participated, highlighting the enthusiasm and talent present in local schools.
What This Means for Students
“Music has shaped our lives, and we believe every young person deserves the same chance to experience that impact,” stated Lee Anderson, President of Wasserman Music. With the J Dilla Music Tech Grants funding, students not only gain access to high-quality music programs but also the opportunity to create connections with industry leaders. This expanded access can build vital career pathways for aspiring musicians and creatives.
Connecting Young Creators with Industry Leaders
Throughout the year, Wasserman Music and Save The Music Foundation will roll out additional events, alternating between Los Angeles and New York. Each event will include workshops, live performances, and interactive sessions designed to inspire students while giving them real-world insights into the music industry. As Henry Donahue, Executive Director of Save The Music, remarked, this partnership opens doors to mentorship that can make a lasting difference in students’ creative journeys.
The Future of Music Education
The partnership will also address systemic inequities in music education, providing resources and support to schools that may lack funding. Since its inception, Save The Music Foundation has invested over $75 million in music education, impacting hundreds of thousands of students nationwide. This new initiative aligns perfectly with their mission to equip students with the tools they need to thrive.
An Invitation to Participate
As the music landscape evolves, opportunities for younger generations continue to expand. The partnership between Wasserman Music and Save The Music Foundation not only enhances local educational resources but also encourages a deeper connection with the industry.
