What is Resonate?
Resonate is a scholarship program that was founded on the basis of diversifying music performance, education and, creating a more accessible environment. For many years, a career in music has been exclusively for those who are financially well off and able to spend years dedicating their time to their craft. It has created a field with little diversity in performance and, a roadblock to those who are not as privileged or come from a specific racial or ethnic background. We at Resonate do not believe that music education should be a privilege; it should have just as much priority as subjects in STEM fields. Resonate aims to provide dedicated students from low-income areas who are minorities in the arts with access to instruments and private instruction, to enable them to begin their own musical journey, without the financial burden.
