▬ About the Initiative ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The world has been stunned by the ferocious advent of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). In short order, as people have sickened and deaths have mounted, normal daily activities have ceased.

In the United States, nationwide cancellations of concerts have put thousands of musicians out of work. Here at the Gabriela Lena Frank Creative Academy of Music, 65 of our composers are donating their time to create music — on an emergency turnaround of 14 days — for performers-in-need to premiere online while sheltered in.

Through an initial pledge of $15,000 from GLFCAM and additional funds raised on GoFundMe, performers are paid $500 each to do what they must do:

To be musicians and create.

If you can donate any sum of money to our effort, you will be acknowledged on our website for your support of performers in need!
