Founded in 2015 by two Indiana University Jacobs School of Music students, Classical Connections partners music students with local organizations to bring the joy of music to underserved community members.

 

Classical Connections operates under the advisement of Dr. Alain Barker, Director of Music Entrepreneurship and Career Development at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. In addition to Dr. Barker's mentorship, the Jacobs School of Music's Project Jumpstart has supported many of the Classical Connections endeavors.

 

With four active community partnerships and over 200 musician members, Classical Connections hosts an average of four performances each month. We are constantly growing within our Bloomington chapter, and we look forward to expanding to additional conservatories in the coming years!
