The Kamloops Music Collective's Fall 2025 Program

About the Program: Whole Note is a community-based initiative unique to Kamloops that supports youth musicians who face financial barriers, but are committed to fulfilling their music potential. Planned as a multi-year program beginning in Fall 2016, Whole Note provides a comprehensive, yet fun approach to music education through lessons, mentorship, and performance opportunities for students in Grades 6 through 12. Youth who participate in the program are also encouraged to share their love of music and the knowledge they gain through the program with others in the community.

The students accepted into this program will receive a series of up to 10 music lessons (instrument or voice) with accredited music teachers in the community (to a maximum $275), a full scholarship to the Kamloops Interior Summer School of Music, which is hosted annually for three weeks in July, and numerous sponsored tickets to community group's concerts and shows.
