Miami Beach

New World Center, Michael Tilson Thomas Performance Hall

Join us in collaboration with Sound Mind for a panel discussion delving into the multifaceted career paths as musicians and the diverse identities that shape the art and artists within it. This year, we're excited to bring together a panel of distinguished musicians and mental health professionals to explore the profound connections between classical musicians and their identities, celebrating the rich tapestry of experiences that inspire their craft, accompanied by a commissioned work that represents the heart of our theme, performed by New World Symphony Fellows.

Sound Mind’s mission is to cultivate mental wellness in the classical music world. Learn more at www.soundmindmusician.org

This event is open to classical musicians, music students, educators, composers, industry professionals and anyone interested in the intersection of classical music and identity. 

Between the Notes: Exploring Identities as Artists is made possible with support from Sound Mind, New World Symphony and the National Alliance on Mental Illness. This event is a NWS BLUE Project. Standing for Build, Learn, Understand and Experiment, the NWS BLUE program is a combination of leadership and entrepreneurship training and hands-on experimentation that provides Fellows with a comprehensive skill set to complement their musical training.
