Testimonials

Below are testimonials of our organization, given by teachers, students and mentors!

"The Sharing our Sound organization has been a tremendous help to my students.    I am so grateful for their wonderful training videos.  The mentors listen carefully to my students’ needs and respond with clear and concise directions.  It is most important for my very young students to watch and learn from the up-and-coming new generation of musicians." 

- Ardath Belzer, Principal Violist of the Reading Symphony Orchestra and Strings Instrumental Music Teacher

"I joined Sharing Our Sound because I wanted to seize the chance to give back to my community after my own years of training in classical music; furthermore, in the last year I have gained a deeper appreciation of classical music through my experiences with the art form. I believe that Sharing Our Sound’s goal to expand access to classical music via personalized training is incredibly important, as everybody should have the opportunity to experience classical music, and, if they wish, to pursue it." 

- Mariacristina Calcagno, Cello/Piano Mentor and Philadelphia Sinfonia Musician

"I joined Sharing Our Sound because it advocates for and acts in music education in public schools: one of the most important things needed in music. Our world isn’t abundant with resources for the common people to use to help build a sustainable music career. Sharing Our Sound helps schools around the district gain the music experience they need and helps out teachers and parents in the process of preparing their kid for the future. As someone who would wish to have help like this when I was learning music (and I started around the same time as other school-aged kids), Sharing Our Sound gave me a new way to help people, embracing me into the many other careers of music in the process."
