Street Symphony musicians provide regular performance and workshop programs to shelters, reentry facilities and clinics in Skid Row, LA County jails, and state prisons. In the last 14 years, Street Symphony groups, composed of leading choral, instrumental, Son Jarocho, Mariachi, and jazz musicians in Los Angeles, have presented over 1500 unique programs, reaching 25,000 people affected by homelessness, incarceration, and poverty in LA. Each engagement is a musical performance as well as an opportunity for dialogue, human connection, and storytelling. Street Symphony also hosts a renown yearly event known as The Messiah Project, a community singalong performance of Handel’s beloved “Messiah,” with community artists as choristers, and even composers and soloists.
