Washington Musical Pathways Initiative
The Next Generation of Classical Musicians
Levine Music is the lead partner of the Washington Musical Pathways Initiative (WMPI), a talent development program for local student musicians in grades 8-12 from communities historically excluded from classical music.
With program elements tailored to prepare students for study at music conservatories or as music majors at four-year colleges and universities, WMPI lays a foundation for future professional opportunities within the music industry.
