From the Top at 25!
From the Top’s founders stood on the sidewalk outside of New England Conservatory’s Jordan Hall and cooked up the idea for a radio show. A national show that would bring to light the extraordinary artistry and stories of classically trained young musicians ages 8 to 18, from all walks of life, and from every corner of the United States.
Today, From the Top is a media platform not replicated anywhere in the music, education or arts ecosystems. We are America’s leading program for young musicians, with our signature radio broadcast and online content, our curriculum for young musicians, and our thought leadership.
From the Top is a place where young musicians can take risks with their artistry, uncover new ways of communicating, build agency around identity, education, and career, and along that journey create great media that inspires audiences and gives hope for the future.
Our mission is clear: to empower and celebrate young musicians. We envision a more empathetic and connected society through their contributions.
This is just our beginning. From the Top is ready to meet our next moment of opportunity.
Thank you for being part of our journey!
