Urban Playground Chamber Music Project

  • St. Theresa's Church 141 Henry St. New York, NY USA (map)

In a new educational partnership with Opportunity Music Project, The Urban Playground Chamber Orchestra has embedded a quartet of our musicians as mentors and coaches for OMP students.

​The culmination is a shared performance of chamber music by Urban Playground and OMP musicians, featuring all composers of color. This community event is a celebration of the young musicians' growth, and our organizational partnerships to broadcast the voices of now.

​Free and open to the public.
