Paper Orchestra Graduation

Before our youngest musicians pick up real instruments, they work alongside their parents, BMP teaching artists, and youth mentors to construct paper instruments, inspired by the tradition from Venezuela's El Sistema program.

At BMP, we have continued this tradition, and each year introduce new design elements and make way for more opportunities for our families and friends of BMP to take part in this community-building experience.in partnership with Beaver Country Day School (BCDS) students and staff

As part of our Paper Instrument Program, a Paper Instrument Graduation is held each year to applaud and celebrate the students' hard work concluding the first steps in their musical journey.
