Hello, community members of Young Composers! Discussion Question: For those of you who are newer to music and its wonderful benefits, why did you choose to enter the world of music? If you are a more seasoned musician, what does your instrument mean to you? How has music helped you holistically? Hopefully, you believe in the power of music to bring together communities and create meaningful change. That is why I speak on behalf of Musical Memories, an international nonprofit dedicated to providing students with an exciting and engaging way to develop their skills in the world of music. We have chapters all across the US and in countries like Hong Kong, where members facilitate interactive activities and performances. 🎻 🎸 However, we also have an online internship program for high school students those who have a deep passion for music and want to explore its intersections with leadership, communication, and creativity! Musical Memories' internships are specialized, exciting opportunities to 1) earn leadership hours, 2) boost resumes, and 3) gain real-world experience in the fields of digital communication, event coordination, and/or graphic design. 🔊 Interns should be high school students dedicated to cultivating meaningful music experiences for others, and have a passion for music. Even if you have little to no leadership experience, this is still an amazing opportunity for you to gain some! 💫 For intern-specific roles, skills, and application guidelines, please visit the following form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScBjg7zuFp6Ct0t1sG1lKIaRAgrn_2QtAv8_G6N0LejCPsaPg/viewform The form is FREE and open to high schoolers grades 9-12! With regards to a location, the internship is remote meaning you can complete all related tasks from the comfort of your home. 🙂 Please don't hesitate to sign up -- If you have any questions, feel free to reach out! Cheers to the power of music 🎊

Calling all student musicians! I wanted to share a music opportunity for anyone interested in performing virtually. A student-run nonprofit I’m involved with (Musical Memories) is organizing an online concert, and we’re currently looking for musicians who’d like to participate. This virtual concert is a partnership with Blowing in the Wind, another nonprofit dedicated to fostering cultural exchanges between students. We're looking for musicians who perform more traditional music, either from their cultural heritage or a unique genre of music they're learning! Accepted participants will submit videos along with a brief explanation about their story in learning that specific type of music. 🎶 🎻 Virtual concert details can be found below: Online event (YouTube livestream) Will take place on Sunday, October 26 ~5-10 performances of ~5 minutes long The sign up form can be found here, which has more logistical guidelines/info. If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out to blowinginthewind.youth@gmail.com, or musicalmemories2023@gmail.com. Please sign up as this is a wonderful, unique opportunity for musicians of all backgrounds and skill levels!
