Brazilian Voices

Bring the Music to All

Not every child can attend a concert, take music lessons, or participate in an arts program.

Some are receiving treatment in a hospital. Some are living with disabilities. Others have limited access to enriching arts experiences in their schools and communities.

So Brazilian Voices brings the music to everyone.

Our trained teaching artists and Artists-in-Residence bring live music directly into hospital rooms, classrooms, and community spaces—creating moments of joy, connection, participation, and self-expression.

At Miami Learning Experience School, a teacher once told us about a non-verbal student who is usually difficult to engage. But when Brazilian Voices arrives, something changes. She begins to sing, dance, and respond to the music.

“We wish you could come every week,” her teacher shared. “She would be in heaven.”

In hospitals, we witness different but equally powerful moments. A child may be frightened, uncomfortable, or isolated. Then a familiar melody begins. A parent joins in. A small percussion instrument is placed in a child’s hand. A smile appears. For a few minutes, the hospital room feels different.

This is why we do what we do.

Brazilian Voices does more than perform for children. We invite them to participate. They sing, play rhythms, move, respond, improvise, and discover their own ability to make music. On special occasions, children with disabilities have even joined Brazilian Voices on stage, experiencing the excitement of performing before their families and community.

Our programs reach children at Miami Learning Experience School, Boys & Girls Clubs, Holtz Children’s Hospital, Alex’s Place at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, Bascom Palmer Eye Institute Pediatrics, and other community and healthcare settings.

For many of the children we serve, these musical experiences would otherwise be out of reach.

This Give Miami Day, help us bring more music, joy, and human connection to the children and families we serve.

Your gift helps Brazilian Voices provide trained teaching artists, live performances, interactive instruments, and meaningful arts experiences for children and families who need them most.

Every donation helps create another moment when a child feels engaged, included, encouraged, and seen.

A song can change the atmosphere of a hospital room.

A rhythm can help a child connect.

A performance can give someone the confidence to discover their own voice.
