Education & Community Programs

In recognition of our duty and desire to be an educational institution as well as a musical one, we have a collaborative partnership with the Long Beach Unified School District and Cal State Long Beach.

Our scholarly, accomplished musicians reach out to schools and students throughout all nine city council districts to share with them the unique beat and best of Baroque music.

Educational Outreach & Community Engagement

Our school outreach program includes the history of baroque music, including an overview of baroque, classical and modern composers, discussion of the period instruments and their differences from modern instruments, and the importance and value of music in our lives. Musica Angelica has conducted site visits to many of the LBUSD middle and high school including Jordan High School, Millikan High School and Wilson High School. They have also completed master classes with the UCLA early music program, LBUSD Harmony Project, Neighborhood Long Beach and the Long Beach Youth Orchestra. Musica Angelica believes in the importance of music education by exposing students to this magnificent art form, students will learn about communication, creativity, and cooperation. They will have the opportunity to practice these skills, enrich their lives, and experience the world from a new perspective.

In addition to our school outreach programs and master classes, Musica Angelica invites LBUSD middle school and high school music students to their live concerts in Long Beach. These students are given up to 4 complimentary tickets per concert. Plus, undergraduate college and university music students are invited to attend a free concert in Long Beach or Los Angeles. Thousands of students and their families have participated in this program. Musica Angelica is excited to help future generations discover the importance of early music and continue the legacy of Bach, Telemann, Vivaldi and other early music composers.

Beyond our educational outreach programs, Musica Angelica is collaborating with the Long Beach Public Libraries to bring early music concerts and discussions to the community. These free concerts are inclusive for all families. During the 2023/2024 season Musica Angelica held their Community Engagement programs at the Billie Jean King Library, the Dana Neighborhood Library, the Los Altos Neighborhood Library and the Michelle Obama Library. We are excited to announce that these community engagement programs will continue through the 2024/2025 season.
