MUSIC UNITES JAMAICA FOUNDATION

 



​

​We seek to expand the awareness of Jamaica's long-standing musical heritage through music workshops and free concerts island-wide. ​We aid in the sourcing of scholarships and instruments for talented students with financial constraints.

​
​
We are committed to the research, preservation and promotion of the works of Jamaican composers of ​Classical, Patriotic, and Sacred music, 
as well as music written for Theatre, Dance, Film & Media, and Jazz. The scope of our vision also includes intercultural activities and the creation of a Music Hub in Kingston.

Was it because of the amazing outburst of Popular Music creativity in Jamaica (which has now lasted for over half a century), that the documentation of all other Jamaican composers has been overlooked?

Music Unites Jamaica Foundation (MUJF) saw the necessity to offer Jamaica and the world an attempt at creating a more complete picture, especially in regards to the Music History syllabus being taught here and in the wider Caribbean. Simply put, we owe it to the many Jamaican composers, starting with Samuel Felsted (born 1743), to pull their outstanding works out of obscurity and from the shadow of Reggae Music! Continue Reading Article Here
