MUSIC FOR TOMORROW


The mission of Music for Tomorrow is to provide resources to enable the continuation of music traditions in need of assistance. These traditions are an important part of a shared culture heritage, which Music for Tomorrow wishes to preserve. The organization will achieve this by awarding grants to musicians and ensembles, presenting or subsidizing concert series, and supporting music institutions that protect our musical heritage.
Music for Tomorrow is currently committed to providing aid to the city of New Orleans, (1) by helping displaced musicians return to New Orleans, through grants for housing and living, (2) by helping, musicians already back in New Orleans through the subsidization of concerts and with need based grants, (3) and by supporting efforts to construct a National Jazz Center, which will serve as the first home for Jazz in America, through a partnership with the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra.
