Teach Music Week

Delaware County non-profit Keep Music Alive is celebrating the 7th Annual Teach Music Week from Monday, March 15th through Sunday, March 21st . This annual week-long holiday invites musicians, music schools, music stores and other music organizations to offer a free lesson or class to new students (both kids & adults). This year, over 1,000 locations in fifteen countries will participate including the U.S., Australia, Brazil, Canada, Croatia, India, Ireland, Japan, Malta, Mexico, New Zealand, Nigeria, Philippines, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Teach Music Week is celebrated annually during the 3rd week of March to coincide with national Music in Our Schools Monthョ. Anyone interested in learning to play an instrument is encouraged to seek out a participating location or musician friend to help get them started. Teach Music Week also invites public, private and charter schools to schedule activities that will encourage more students to sign up for music, band and chorus classes.

Vincent James, co-founder of Keep Music Alive states, “We all know that the biggest hurdle to doing something is often just getting started. With Teach Music Week, we are hoping to inspire a new generation of musicians who will continue reaping the educational, therapeutic and social benefits of playing music, long after the month of March is over.”

Keep Music Alive is honored to welcome the following music brands as partners for the 6th Annual Teach Music Week: Alfred Music, Casio, Conn-Selmer, D’Addario Foundation, Hungry For Music, Kala Brand Music, Music & Sounds Retailer, Musical U, Remo and Rock Out Loud LIVE. Together, they are helping to share the Teach Music Week message, inspiring more children and adults to begin their musical journey.

Music & Arts, the largest music lesson provider in the country, will participate in Teach Music Week by hosting two free Group lessons for Beginner and Intermediate Guitar on Saturday, March 20th at participating stores with over 220 locations nationwide: www.musicarts.com/openhouse

Individual locations from additional chains participating this year include Long & McQuade, Kindermusik, Gymboree Play & Music, Music Together and the legendary School of Rock.
