Coalition for Music Education in Canada

Introducing our newest Champions for Music Education. To date, we have more than 30 musicians representing all facets of music. This new phase of the campaign will expand the program to include leaders who are at the peaks of their careers – people who have a joy and passion for music and recognize its ability to enrich the lives of young people. Our new Champions are proof that music helps people be the best they can be and they are proud be part of the National Effort to support quality music programs in our schools.
