Giving Back to Our Youth

Did you know?
Brevard Philharmonic’s Music in the Schools program brings live, professional performances into every elementary and middle school in Transylvania County—including charter and home school students!

That means thousands of students each year get to experience the thrill of classical music up close—often for the very first time. From strings and brass to rhythm and melody, this kind of exposure matters.

Studies show that experiencing classical music can support learning, boost confidence, and strengthen focus—especially in young minds.

And it’s all free to the schools, thanks to our incredible supporters.

Brevard Philharmonic’s Donate Your Instrument program puts instruments into the hands of local students who might not otherwise have the chance to play.

Through generous community donations, we’ve collected, repaired, and delivered more than 180 instruments to Transylvania County schools—opening the door for hundreds of young musicians to join band and orchestra programs.

Every trumpet, violin, flute, and clarinet tells a new story in a student’s hands.

This is what music access looks like—and it's only possible because of supporters like you.

Got an instrument gathering dust? Let’s give it new life.
