Live Music Now!


Attention! Are you a teacher, band director, or principal in a Chicago Public School? Then we have just the program for you. It’s LIVE MUSIC NOW! And it’s FREE of charge to your school.

The purpose of Live Music Now! Programs is to bring live music to groups that would ordinarily not be able to experience the joy of attending a live performance.
