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 promo7tion of the works of Jamaican composers of Classical, Patriotic, and Church music, as well as written music for Theatre and Dance. Inter-cultural exchange activities and the administration of the Samuel Felsted Chamber Orchestra are also part of our mission.
