Music Live

Since 2007 as part of our outreach program, we’ve been bringing live classical music performances to Nevada County’s K-8 schools. A professional brass quintet, piano quintet and wind quintet provide “Informances(performing, demonstrating and teaching) in school assemblies. To make the most of this experience, MIM captures the “teaching moment” by encouraging students to write thank you letters. This simple action helps students put into writing what they saw and heard. Music Live is coordinated in part by the Nevada County Superintendent of Schools Office.
