Invest in the future of the performing arts with a gift for an annual or endowed College scholarship
MSM aims to ensure that no gifted young musician is deprived of the opportunity to receive a music education of the highest quality due to financial need. A robust scholarship program enables the School to attract and retain students of the best technical and artistic ability in a highly crowded enrollment landscape, enhancing our reputation for excellence in music education and the entire MSM Community.
Your scholarship gift helps MSM carry out its important work preparing immensely gifted young musicians to be accomplished and passionate performers and leaders in the arts and society and ensures the continued vitality of the performing arts.
An annual College scholarship may be established in your name or in the name of one you choose to honor with a gift of $5,000 or more and can be designated to a specific instrument or area of study. Annual scholarships are fully expended in the year in which they are received to support an outstanding student with financial need and must be renewed on an annual basis to continue.
An endowed college scholarship may be established in your name or in the name of one you choose to honor with a gift of $100,000 or more. An endowed scholarship exists in perpetuity and provides essential financial support to future generations of aspiring musicians. The principal of an endowed scholarship is permanently invested, and the income it earns is awarded to students as scholarship money.
Scholarship donors are invited to scholarship recipients’ concerts, performances, and recitals; receive updates on their academic and artistic progress; and attend an annual luncheon hosted by MSM’s President where they learn about the difference they are making in the lives of young musicians and enjoy their thrilling performances. Additionally, they receive invitations to a host of special events planned throughout the year where they have an opportunity to meet like-minded patrons, talented students, distinguished faculty members, and guest artists.
We thank you for sharing our belief in the transformative power of music and for your interest in supporting exemplary performing arts education.
