Harmony Program A nonprofit organization delivering high-quality music education to youth throughout New York City Today, the organization is independent.

Anne Fitzgibbon founded the Harmony Program in 2003 as a privately funded project within the New York City Mayor's Office. After a successful pilot period, the Harmony Program was incorporated as an independent non-profit organization in 2004 and in 2008 entered into a formal partnership with the City University of New York (CUNY) to foster growth and sustainability. The Harmony Program is inspired by Venezuela's world-renowned system of music education, "El Sistema," which the Harmony Program's founder studied during a yearlong Fulbright Fellowship. While there are nearly 100 "El Sistema"-inspired efforts in the country today, the Harmony Program is arguably the first United States-based model inspired by Venezuela's approach.

More from orientation weekend! Our Teaching Artists discussed ways to meet students where they are, build trust in the classroom, and bring the full spirit of Harmony into every lesson in various classroom contexts. We can't wait to see what this year brings!

We're enormously grateful for our partners at RSM US! Your generosity in offering your office space allowed for some of the best orientation discussions yet–and they even printed all the materials to start our teachers off on the right foot! A huge thank you to our RSM volunteers who are printing mountains of music and rolling up their sleeves to help us assemble binders ahead of our Ensemble Network kickoff this Thursday. Your partnership is so important to us! US LLP

We're so grateful for the thoughtful leadership she brings to our community every day. Here's to a great year ahead!
