THE PERFECT PITCH – TEAMING UP FOR MUSIC EDUCATION

Read more about the Perfect Pitch's Education Benefits Here!

The Philharmonic’s education and outreach programs were launched through an initial grant from the Sacramento River Cats, who continue to offer support.  As River Cats CEO Art Savage says, “It’s clear that the Philharmonic shares our desire to be a resource for the entire region. ”  That early support gave us the opportunity to partner throughout the region with schools, businesses and individuals – and gives our youth opportunities to connect with the Philharmonic and its “players” in new and exciting ways.  PERFECT PITCH Programs reached over 22,000 youngsters in the Sacramento Region in the past year.

Can you imagine being an elementary school student in the Sacramento area and having Music Director Michael Morgan visit your classroom?  How about experiencing Assistant Concertmaster Dan Flanagan teaching group string classes at your school site?  Students can take part in these Philharmonic educational programs and more!
