Young Friends

Our Young Friends program is comprised of multifaceted professionals, ages 21-39, who share a passion for music and a strong desire to make a difference for children in New York City public schools. Through musical benefits and varied events, our Young Friends have the opportunity to contribute to Midori & Friends music education initiatives while expanding their professional and social networks.

Launched in June 2011, the Young Friends group has already infused our outreach with their own special energy and point of view. View the video to the right of this page to hear our special young leaders reminisce about their music teachers and reflect on the special ways that music education has shaped their lives.
