“I believe our mission is more about helping students realize their potential as musicians. We need to find ways to encourage them to engage with the culture, as allies and ambassadors for the arts. It’s important that our passion for music education and appreciation goes beyond self-gratification to improving the human condition”

Margaret Wengert, Friends of Music
