For information on how you can contact Allegretto Outreach call 508-255-3864. Www.allegrettocapecod.org We are supported by local Cultural Council grants and private donations. The Cape Cod Foundation oversees our Allegretto Fund in order that donors will be able to get a tax deductible donation when giving to us. our musicians are paid a minimal fee for their time in the schools. All members of Allegretto are able to make an appearance in the schools during regular school hours. Some of us are professional musicians, some are retired from long careers and love playing music and sharing the love of music with the future generations. We also can work on a sliding scale, so that our mission can be carried on: We want to spark that interest in a child so that they say to themselves "I want to learn the violin, or the trumpet or the piano" etc. Music has been taken out of many schools, and we try and bring it back, music is a vital tool in a child's academic life. It helps in concentration, it. Helps with socialization, confidence and it is known to help in a child's math abilities. So many reasons to take on lessons in music, making a lifetime friend (the instrument or two), and creating a source of pride.
