Community Outreach - Jessica Platt - Violin

Jessica Platt - Violin

I am dedicated to bringing the enchanting world of classical music to communities in St. Louis.
My mission is to break down the barriers that have traditionally surrounded classical music by showcasing underrepresented composers and performers, promoting local talent, and creating a sense of community through engaging performances.
My vision is to create a diverse and accessible concert series throughout the St. Louis region, sharing the joy of classical music with people who may not have had the opportunity to experience it before.
We believe in making classical music not just accessible but fun and relevant to all.
I use the power of classical music to connect with communities in unexpected places. Bringing the magic of classical instruments to local sites where people already feel welcome, rather than confining it to grand symphony halls. I organize unique performances that captivate audiences and leave them with a newfound appreciation for classical music. My programs encompass a wide range of musical genres, from early music to contemporary compositions, showcasing the rich tapestry of classical music from around the world and our local community.
WHY
Classical possesses a unique ability to enrich lives in profound ways. I am passionate about harnessing the benefits of classical music and sharing it with the community.
HOW
I seek to bridge the cultural understanding of classical music and reintroduce classical music into everyday life by embedding performances in our communities, where audiences can not only listen but also engage with music history lessons in the context of the performance. I strive to educate and inspire by showcasing the evolution of music and how it can positively impact our community and beyond. I bring classical music to life in innovative and engaging ways.
