Every Student is a Scholar. Every Scholar is a Talent.

Your support is vital to our cause.

Our Story. Your Impact.

Classic Music Education Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization founded in 2010 by Lilith Aryan Tonapetian. Her vision was inspired by a profound belief in the transformative power of classical music — especially in the lives of children. The foundation is rooted in the belief that all children are created equal and deserve access to classical music education, should they wish to pursue it.

Opening Doors to a World of Music

At Classical Music Education Foundation, our mission is simple: to open the world of classical music to every child who shows a spark of talent and a love of learning.

Unlock Hidden Talent.

Too many young people grow up without ever hearing a symphony or seeing a piano up close. We reach out to communities where music education is scarce—helping children discover the world of Beethoven, Mozart, and much more.

Nurture Gifts. Build Futures.

When we find that spark, we help it grow. Every student we support receives thoughtful, dedicated teaching—through one-on-one lessons, personalized guidance, and the tools they need to build skill, confidence, and a bright future in music.

Inspire New Generations.

We hope to spark a lifelong love of music, not just in our students, but in their families, schools, and communities as well. Because when a young musician takes the stage, they don’t just play notes. They carry forward a timeless art for all to hear.

Keeping Classical Music Alive

We believe classical music shouldn’t fade quietly into the past. It should continue to echo forward—through young hands, curious minds, and fresh talent. Every lesson taught, every instrument donated, and every scholarship awarded helps keep this timeless art alive and meaningful in a changing world.

When a child picks up a violin for the first time, or a family gathers proudly for a student’s first recital, it’s more than music. It’s connection. It’s discipline, beauty, and hope. This is why we do what we do—and why we invite you to stand with us.

Together, we can pass the gift of classical music to a new generation and ensure its notes continue to play long after we’re gone.
