“Since joining Midori & Friends I have become a part of a diverse, empowered group of people from whom I have learned about many important issues regarding music education in our city. By listening to their stories and meeting various community leaders and advocates, I believe that I have not only recognized concerns around me but also how I may be able to address them.”

“Being able to teach ukulele and work with students on creating a positive outlet that they will carry for the rest of their lives is my ife’s greatest honor. My heart is so filled with joy and gratitude to watch my students progress and bask in the confidence that come with such an incredible accomplishment: learning to play music for the love of it. This is an absolutely vital and necessary service, and we couldn’t be more excited to work with them on expanding the ukulele program to the city, state, and world over!”

“For the past 14 years, we’ve partnered with Midori & Friends to keep music flowing through the halls of our school. Today, classes with very good attendance were treated to a performance by Elena Moon Park & Friends! With songs in Spanish, Japanese and Mandarin, our students danced, jumped, clapped and sang to fun songs celebrating children all around the world. We are so thankful to Midori & Friends for treating our scholars to this amazing band. Thank you for coming to our school!”
Jose Cantu, Dean at PS 4M The Duke Ellington School
