ALIAS Chamber Ensemble
Programs
Budget
$12,500.00
Description
Through ALIAS in the Community programs (AIC), ALIAS enriches the lives of Nashville's students, families, and diverse communities with the gift of chamber music. ALIAS nurtures enduring partnerships with area schools and fellow nonprofit organizations in order to engage a range of Nashville's most underserved adults and children. The musicians bring both new and ageless classical music to the community in a variety of imaginative educational programs. ALIAS plans to continue its partnership with Whitsitt Elementary School to deliver programming throughout the academic year. This coming season, ALIAS will also partner with the Nashville Ballet, sending ALIAS musicians and a Ballet teaching artist to schools, and presenting a program that blends live classical music with improvisational dance techniques. ALIAS also returned to the Nashville Freedom School in summer 2017, and plans to return in summer 2018.
