Over the course of the past 60 years, offerings at Bloomingdale have expanded to include all ages from babies and toddlers to older adults. Classes, lessons, and ensembles are now offered on more than 20 instruments for beginners to conservatory prep. Programs and partnerships now take place at the beloved brownstone, as far away as the Bronx, and anywhere Bloomingdale can extend its reach to bring the joy of music to those who need it most.
While Bloomingdale has grown into a New York City institution for community music, its mission has remained true to its roots: to make quality music education accessible to all. This year alone, Bloomingdale will award over $320,000 in financial aid and scholarships, serve nearly 1000 students, and present more than 100 concerts and festivals that are free and open to the public.
In honor of the school’s 60th anniversary, Bloomingdale will present a full year of special events beginning with their 60th Birthday Concert in the David Greer Concert Hall, Friday, November 8th at 7pm. The concert features a tribute to Bebop Jazz Saxophonist Benny Golson with faculty members Eli Asher, trumpet and Michael Cochrane, piano; and guest artists Joe Ford, alto saxophone; Calvin Hill, bass; and Steve Johns, drums. The set will be followed by a reception with cake and light refreshments. Both the concert and reception are free and open to the public.
