About Us
From the Top is America’s largest national platform celebrating young classically-trained musicians. Through NPR broadcasts and digital content, and the Learning and Media Lab Fellowship, From the Top empowers young musicians to use their music and stories to engage and inspire audiences of all ages.
- Our Mission and Vision
From the Top empowers and celebrates young musicians.
We envision a more empathetic and connected society through the contributions of young musicians.
- Broadcast and Digital Content
From the Top celebrates classically-trained young musicians through its broadcast/podcast and social media platforms.
- Learning and Media Lab Fellowship
From the Top’s Learning and Media Lab Fellowship provides young musicians a space to explore life as an artist, content creation, and the power of community engagement.
Fellows also have the unique opportunity to share their performances and perspectives with a large national broadcast and digital audience.
- Funding
From the Top is an independent non-profit organization. Though our radio show is distributed by NPR, we are not a public radio organization, and receive less than 8% of our revenues from radio carriage fees. Thanks to generous individual, corporate, and foundation support, our media and education programs are offered to our musicians and the general public at no charge. We welcome contributions of all levels; visit our Support page to learn more.
