For 45 years, Musica Viva Australia has brought live music into schools across the country, creating moments students carry with them for life.

A musician standing just metres away. The sound of an instrument heard live for the very first time. The realisation that music is something they can see, feel and connect with.

For some, it becomes the moment everything changes. It changes what they believe is possible. Help us reach more young people through the power of live music.

We loved reading this feature from the Victorian Deaf Education Institute highlighting Musica Viva Australia's long-running Music Education Residency at Furlong Park School for Deaf Children.

The piece celebrates the work of Music Education Residency Teaching Artist Karen Kyriakou, who has spent many years creating inclusive music experiences for deaf and hard of hearing students through movement, vibration, visual communication, instruments and Auslan, helping young people connect with music, creativity and self-expression.

We're grateful to Principal Lee and the entire Furlong Park School community for their ongoing commitment to the program, and to the Marian and E.H. Flack Trust for their valued support in making this work possible. Read the article below πŸ‘‡
