The DSO is collecting 2,500 new and used instruments this month as part of an inaugural instrument drive for its Detroit Harmony program. The program, announced two years ago, aims to put an instrument in the hands of every K-12 public, private or charter student who wants to learn how to play.
Detroit Harmony, which the DSO unveiled in 2019, is a citywide collaboration with music educators, performing artists, Detroit residents, civic leaders, and nonprofit music education providers to equip local students with instruments and teach them how to play. The orchestra completed the first phase of funding the same year the program was announced, raising $300,000 from local foundations.
The event, which is free and open to the public, will feature Slawek playing the Hindustani stringed instrument, the sitar. Slawek will be accompanied by Sri Gourisankar, who will play the tabla, an Indian percussion instrument used in Hindustani classical music.
