“If children are not introduced to music at an early age, I believe something fundamental is actually being taken from them.” – Luciano Pavarotti
The Rising Star Music Fund is a 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to supporting music education, encouraging the study and making of music, and providing opportunities for children with special needs or in under-served communities to access well-balanced, comprehensive, and high-quality programs of music instruction.
