Young People’s Chorus of New York City animating Democracy
Delegacy
Young People’s Chorus of New York is an organization with a goal to provide music education and choral performance to children of all cultural and economic backgrounds. Their assignment is to maximize children’s talent and make it an important part of the artistic diversity that reaches community all over the world. Beautifully this group is making a huge impact on children making their journey to success much easier. The main key is reaching and inspiring millions of people through music.
Journey
The crucial person in this story is Francisco Nunez who also had the low-income background and had to fight for his talent to come through. Socializing with children from very different backgrounds and rehearsing with them was a beginning of his journey. This journey continued for about 10-15 years until Francisco founded Young People’s Chorus of New York City.
Soon this group became most popular children’s chorus and became an independent nonprofit organization. Winning medals in many international competitions were just one of the ways to show their quality. In time many important composers started to write new music for these young talents. Further on its way, Francisco insisted on his fundamental condition while recruiting children and that was to spread diversity of children as more as possible. Based on different racial, economic and religious backgrounds he was building a huge bridge connecting all parts of the world.
Meanwhile, YPC’s music programs started to extend to public schools and after/school programs in collaboration with the Department of Education. Soon it came to a level for even preparing their choristers for college.
YPC continued to travel, perform, and compete on much different level spreading their quality. This, of course, was soon rewarded with National Medal of Arts and Humanities Youth Program Award as the highest honor for youth programs in White House.
After many tours, appearances and performances there came the most important moment of all this journey, and it was opening its first permanent home. A place located across Lincoln Center which provides study spaces with classrooms, computer labs, and chill lounges. All together presents a safe corner for choristers to improve their talents and take a tour through their creativity.
Nowadays
As one of the most important houses in the world, it continues its mission to provide a chance to all talented children of the world. Francisco Nunez’s original belief is still living and impacting to show the greatness of its children.
Community Music School In NY
Music as powerful engine
Music is a powerful engine in many ways, especially in education. As an important component of our everyday life and aside from being enjoyable, music can enhance our creativity, energize us and also educate. Its capability to show us huge diversity going through many different forms is just remarkable.And at the same time, it connects people on the emotional, social and mental level.
In multicultural societies by celebrating the heritage and promoting intercultural differences music can break down barriers among various cultural, racial and language groups. This can be done in elementary, secondary schools and also colleges and universities. Music is a great gateway to study other cultures as well as the importance of local music.
Music education:
Each person understands music differently, and this is influenced by their society and their nature. That is why education should support equitable participation to all individuals to contribute developing diversity. Considering and appreciating people’s uniqueness and connecting it to a sense of belonging to a group are basics of further education. Respecting language rights, preserving different cultural heritages is the best way of showing how much you respect others also like yourself.
Developing games, workshops or music classes are a great introduction to a world of knowledge about democracy and diversity and could be much more interesting and more absorbing. We could say that a feeling of free political expression and free musical expression are inseparable. Musical metaphors are very often in political movements and theories regarded as political communication. More radical and more musical democracy provides much stronger influence and embraces the spirit of humanity much easier.
Approaching diversity in schools:
As a country becomes increasingly diverse, it is very important for students in every music school to study a completive variety of musical styles, cultures and genres. Teachers and students should be encouraged to make music from all around the world. This is much easier when teacher workforce in school is more diverse. Creating a more diverse music educator workforce supports the connection between community and school, and it makes a better match to students that they teach. The student should always be allowed regardless of race, economic status, religious background, sexual orientation and identity to participate in the making of music within their schools. Including all forms and types of music in the classroom allows the student to explore and expand their creativity, language, and communication as much as music literacy.
Excluding groups and building barriers between individuals do not develop democratic growth in our classrooms rather they improve fear and prevent equality. The classroom should be a place where diversity is integrated and embraced. Fortunately, today, thanks to much easier approach to any information, individuals are in a position to learn and express themselves in many ways. It has been proven to help students learn, grow and thrive.

Democracy Event music&art
October 3, 2017 by Joe Dingin • Music&Art • Tags: democracy evens, Music events advantages, music festivals •
Music is probably one of the most powerful weapons. We can say that music was always an enigma to scientist and a lot of people are fascinated by the fact that music affects people’s reactions and feeling in such high percentage. They tried to proof the opposite for centuries, but their effort was in vain. Music was, and it always will be the strongest weapon when it comes to human kind’s feelings.
We have a thousand of attempts of the government to control the nation via music. The best part of music is the fact it is loud on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is a silent weapon. It means then you can change the system of values in people’s with playing them one type of songs and lyrics.
Music Events
Nowadays, we can say that this is an era of music events. In the previous century, only the biggest cities have own music festivals. Nowadays, the situation is a little bit different, and it seems like every city in the country has the own manifestation of this kind. You probably wonder why this is so. It is not related to humans’ mood or behavior.
People are the same; they are not cheerful more than in a previous century. The only difference that is logical and can be proved by evidence is that music organizations are stronger than ever. Some people realized, how easy it is to send a message via music event and they start organizing festivals all over the world.
Music events advantages
You can also collect many in charity purpose and help some child that is seriously sick to pay his or her treatment with the collected amount. You can fight against some idea that is threatening to ruin the society of you can prevent some bad influence to spread around the country. You can gather people from all over the world and help them to share the same emotion and the same ideology.
When we are talking about regular music events where you come just to hear your favorite musician, here you can hear other performers that are not that famous and maybe start to listen to them in the future. The music event is always better than listening to the music at home because the atmosphere is better and the result of the crowd. Nowadays, we have a lot of democracy evens, which the main purpose is to share it and show people how this idea is implemented in our modern society.
