Music Program
🎶 Highbridge Voices Music Program Program HighlightsÂ
The Highbridge Voices Music Program is a transformative afterschool initiative that empowers students in grades 3–12 through comprehensive choral training, musical instruction, and inspiring performance opportunities. Rooted in the belief that music can inspire discipline, confidence, and excellence, the program provides a structured and nurturing environment where young vocalists grow into skilled performers and thoughtful leaders.
🎤 Program Highlights
Choral Ensembles – Students are placed into age-appropriate choirs that build their musical skills progressively:
Beginner Choir: Weekly afterschool singing and musical instruction designed to introduce students to the foundations of choral performance.
Intermediate Choir: Weekly rehearsals and performance-based learning that deepen musical knowledge and stage presence.
Advanced Choir: A rigorous, daily program offering advanced musical training, world-class performance opportunities, travel experiences, and participation in regional and national choral competitions.
Rehearsals are held Monday through Friday from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at our Main Campus, providing students with consistent, structured musical instruction. Under the guidance of experienced music educators, vocal coaches, and collaborative pianists, students receive professional training in vocal techniques, music theory, sight reading, and ensemble performance while exploring a diverse repertoire that includes classical, gospel, Broadway, folk, and contemporary styles. Students also have the opportunity to showcase their talents at prestigious venues across New York City—such as Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Dizzy’s Club and the Theatre at St. Jean Baptiste—gaining valuable stage experience and building confidence through live performance.
🎧 Music Beyond the Main Campus
In addition to the core choral program, Highbridge Voices has expanded its reach to bring high-quality music education to more students in the Bronx:
The Highbridge Green School – Through an in-school residency, Highbridge Voices provides Digital Music instruction, giving middle school students access to music technology, beat-making, composition, and recording skills.
Highbridge Voices at Brilla Pax Friday Program (Launching August 2025) – In partnership with Brilla Pax Charter School, Highbridge Voices will launch a new Friday afternoon music program designed to introduce Brilla students to vocal music, music theory, and collaborative ensemble work. This exciting new initiative will extend Highbridge Voices’ mission to a new group of young learners while building a bridge between school and the arts.
Through these diverse programs, Highbridge Voices continues to create a powerful platform for Bronx youth to discover their voice, express their creativity, and build a strong foundation for future success—on the stage and beyond.
