london music masters

London Music Masters (LMM) aims to address the challenges facing talented young violinists and remove barriers for potential musicians from diverse backgrounds. We actively work towards achieving this aim through two ventures: 1)The Bridge Project... ...is an educational initiative which identifies and nurtures young children who might not otherwise have the opportunity to engage in classical music. Targeting socio-economically challenged inner-city boroughs, the Project encourages children, their families and their communities to develop a life-long appreciation for classical music in all its varied forms. In particular, this project aims to help increase the ethnic and socio-economic diversity within professional music ensembles by reaching out to broader communities from a young age and preparing them to participate and succeed in the classical world. 2)The LMM Awards... ...are given every three years to three exceptional violinists between the ages of 18 and 28, recognising extraordinary musicianship with generous financial and career support. The LMM Awards seek to help exceptionally talented young artists to further their professional careers while serving as positive role models, reaching new audiences and enriching their communities and themselves. The winners - 'LMM Artists' - each receive an Award package which is tailored to reflect their individuality personal aspirations and achievements.
