Mission Statement
EUTERPE CANADA, named after the Greek Muse of Music, is a well-established registered not-for-profit charity which brings LIVE, high calibre performance programs of Classical, Jazz and related diverse musical styles to those who might not otherwise have access to these life-enhancing opportunities. CHILDREN, especially those from underserved communities, and SENIORS are a principal focus for Euterpe. Music is The Key for happier, healthier children, families, seniors, and respective communities. Euterpe: Music for Health Canada’s evidence-based invaluable musical initiatives have been endorsed by the scientific community.
About This Cause
CHILDREN: For over a dozen years, the world-class musicians of Euterpe have conducted live, interactive, fun, educational performance programs for CHILDREN, principally those in underserved communities. Euterpe’s unique evidence-based performance programs involve children’s participation in the performances in a variety of fun, creative ways. Scientific studies have documented that most children today are not exposed to the Western musical genres of Classical, Jazz and related musical styles, either recorded or live. The long-term educational, artistic and health benefits of this music are well-known. Despite this, vitally important vibrant music programs, that were once an integral part of the public-school curriculum, are no longer unavailable to the vast majority of children in our country. Learning music and participating in music-making activities is known to provide inestimable benefits to the developing brain, aiding immensely with focus, discipline, academic learning, synchrony of movement, all areas of positive social development and interaction, (including fostering self-esteem, confidence, empathy, sense of purpose, social bonding, cooperation, and more), as well as overall well-being throughout one’s life. Euterpe’s life-enhancing, evidence-based performance programs plant musical seeds, inspiring children of diverse cultural backgrounds to want to hear more of this music, to play a musical instrument and to become involved in music-making activities, such as singing in a choir or playing in a band or orchestra. When children are involved with this music early on, they become much better equipped in life. In 2020, Euterpe: Music for Health Canada was awarded a 3-year Ontario Trillium Foundation Grow Grant. SENIORS: For over a dozen years, Euterpe: Music for Health Canada has been devoted to bringing highest calibre, stylistically diverse musical performances to those who might not otherwise have the chance to experience these life-enhancing opportunities. SENIORS are among those whose lives have been significantly enriched by wonderful programs provided by Euterpe’s world-class performers, whose fun and engaging rapport with the residents accompanies the superb music-making. The benefits of these opportunities for seniors are well-documented, and Euterpe’s unique performance programs, which have been endorsed by the scientific community, richly fulfill the tremendous need for live musical stimulation for seniors.
