  • Be InstrumentalTMworkshops are group mentoring practicums for students enrolled in school band, voice, and related school music programs as well as for aspiring music students outside of band (keyboards, guitar, songwriting, digital engineering/recording, etc.) taught by industry professionals, professional musicians, and music teachers. Accomplished musicians have a unique opportunity to inspire. Infinite Music enlists the support of professional musicians to present workshops and assemblies on technique and the role music has played in their lives. The result: enlightening performances, inspiring talks, and the chance to make a positive impact on young people's lives. This is an exciting new program that we just launched near the end of 2025 with clinics scheduled for the 2026/27 academic school year. As a result of the late start in the year there are no expenses, revenue, or grants attributed to this program.0
