MUSIC FOR EVERYONE!

Programs and Events

 

PV Chamber Orchestra

Young adults work side by side with older, professional musicians to hone their skills through a series of concerts geared to expose them to more difficult music and public performances. This is a cross-generational, multi-cultural program that brings out the best in all involved. All profits from performances go directly back into the one on one music lessons.

Salty Paw Jazz Orchestra

This lively group has been performing throughout the entire Bandaras Bay area.  Under the guidance and artistic direction of Victor Kriss, these young adults learn the difficult theories of chord structures and improvisation.  No matter the instrument, Kriss has them jamming!  Audiences have been entranced and overjoyed by this fun and talented group.

Support Us

You can help! Support from the community is essential to our mission of inclusiveness. There are many ways for you to be involved.

Financial

Tax deductible donations can be made here or you can contact us. Your donations will keep our scholarship programs and the educational institute alive and making music.

Volunteer

We need volunteers in all aspects of the organization. Whether you help a needy student to get to a concert, usher, help with mailings, organize events and fundraisers, or provide help with our websites and social media, you can be an invaluable member of I AM PV, because we are ALL PV.

Donate Instruments

Musical instruments are expensive. Perhaps you have an instrument in the attic or garage, or maybe you have connections with a high school or university band program that is upgrading and looking to donate equipment or instruments. Our students can use them.
