The Yamaha courses began in the mid-1950s in Japan under the direction of Mr. Gen’ichi Kawakami, the president of Nippon-Gakki Company, Ltd. (now called Yamaha Corporation). Mr. Kawakami believed his company was responsible not only for making a quality product, but also for teaching customers how to use the product. Consequently, he established the non-profit Yamaha Music Foundation (YMF) in 1966 for the purpose of developing and promoting music education and music popularization activities internationally. YMF guides the development of the Yamaha Music Education System in 41 countries and also sponsors international events such as the Junior Original Concert (JOC). Yamaha's method cultivates musical ability, creativity, and a love of music. Students learn to hear, play, read, understand, and appreciate every aspect of music. As they advance, children study performance, improvisation and composition.
We are a small non-profit in Birmingham, Alabama.
We sell donated sheet music and method books that we cannot use in our Scrollworks program at this time.
All proceeds from our sales are used to provide instruction on orchestral instruments, piano and voice to children who otherwise would not have access, including children with disabilities.
