Mix Major

Mix Major is a music-making education program that teaches kids (grades K-12) how to make the music they listen to and love. Mix Major transforms virtually any room into a fully functional music studio, giving kids the tools to create their own songs. Kids collaborate and explore musical possibilities - finding their own sound, their own voice, and discovering their own musical identities.

While always encouraging traditional music training, Mix Major offers kids an alternative and practical method to music creation. Kids can now create music that sounds like what they listen to - in the car, on the radio, or even in their favorite movie - without years of musical training.

Mix Major currently runs programs in existing public and private schools, offering enrichment opportunities for kids during both in-school and after-school hours. Mix Major's year round programs include evening classes and summer-camps. Mix Major will soon offer programs for home-schooled children.

Our mission is to teach kids how to bring their musical imagination to life. Our project-based approach to music education engages kids in collaborative hands-on learning, empowering them with skills in creativity, problem solving, self-expression, and technology. At Mix Major, we hope to give kids everywhere the chance to create their own music, regardless of traditional music skills or training.

Mix Major teaches children more than just music technology skills. Mix Major teaches kids how to imagine and create, how to listen and analyze, how to communicate and collaborate, and how to evoke emotion through sound and words. Mix Major uses the creative process in music to reinforce skills that prepare kids for success, not just in music, but in life.
