Education Through Music-Los Angeles (ETM-LA) partners with inner-city schools to provide music as a core subject for all children. We have over 36 partner schools throughout Los Angeles and serve approximately 15,000 students.
As part of our mission, we aim to inspire our students by bringing in musicians to give school performances in our music classes and as part of assemblies and to talk a little bit about why music matters to them.
We are looking for musicians with experience playing violin, viola, guitar, woodwinds, brass, or piano. Experience playing in an orchestra or a degree in music performance isn't necessary, but valued!

Mission Statement
ETM-LA is a non-profit organization that provides weekly, yearlong music instruction in the disciplines of violin, cello, guitar, recorder, chorus and general music to underserved schools. ETM-LA serves schools where over 95% of the population is minority. Our mission is to promote the sustainable integration of music into the curricula of at-risk schools, and to provide music instruction to EVERY CHILD regardless of musical ability, social economic status or disability. Independent studies have shown that children who play instruments score higher on test scores and excel in all areas. ETM-LA makes music education a reality for thousands of children who would otherwise have limited or no exposure to the arts.
