Music for All’s mission is to create, provide, and expand positively life-changing experiences through music for all. Music for All’s programs include more than 30 annual events, serving more than 500,000 attendees each year, with 300,000 students, parents, teachers, and spectators participating each year in its programs and events. The programs include ensemble experiences, hands-on opportunities for individual student performance training and growth, and teacher professional development, and they include national honor ensembles such as the Bands of America Honor Band that marched for the fifth time in the Rose Parade on New Year’s Day 2022. Music for All is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit educational organization and was founded in 1975, with more than 1.3 million attendees in its 46-year history.
Bands of America (BOA) marching band championships are described as America’s premier events for high school marching bands, and the Bands of America Championships are described as offering positively life-changing experiences for the students, teachers, and parents of the bands who participate, as well as fans and spectators. Bands of America Summer Camp, presented by Yamaha, is described as the most-intensive, non-stop, make-you-better approach to marching band musicianship, marching performance excellence, and student leadership development, and it includes the Sweetwater Director Academy, presented by Yamaha. Advocacy in Action is a signature awards program of Music for All that is designed to collect, recognize, and share effective practices and initiatives that support music education in schools. Each choir video in the program’s choir section has been donated by the clinician and is available completely free of charge.
Music for All is committed to informing and empowering students, parents, and teachers to be engaged advocates for the arts and music education in their communities and across the nation. Music for All believes that music and arts education is core to students’ education and must be available to all students. The organization notes that students involved in music score an average of 102 points higher on the SAT than students not involved in music, and that schools with music programs have significantly higher graduation and attendance rates than those without. Valerie Hunt, CPA, MBA, serves as Chief Financial Officer of Music for All.
