Every summer, students from all over the United States and abroad, come together to participate in the National Symphony Orchestra's Summer Music Institute. The tuition-free program is designed to expose and prepare students for a 21st century career in music through individualized training and rich experiences to empower students as leaders and thinkers in their chosen fields, while reducing barriers to access.

National Symphony Orchestra Education desires to raise up the coming generation of music professionals to be powerful change-makers in an orchestral world with equity and inclusion, racial and gender diversity, and assurances of safety and belonging.
