An International Virtual Youth Orchestra
Original Composed Music by Youth
Under the direction of Internationally acclaimed violinist Scarlet Rivera and in her role as the Art Miles Mural Project Music Ambassador, in collaboration with Jon Laskin, Executive Director and Founder of Musicains Workshop, welcome and invites Youth of the World to help create the 1st ever collaborative Opus.

Our mission is to provide youth from diverse regions of the world with the opportunity to use music as the expression of a common vision of peace and unity by bringing music teachers, students, aspiring professional musicians, and celebrity musicians together who will collaboratively compose, record, and perform original pieces of music, forming an international virtual and live youth orchestra, inspired and based on an Art Miles Mural of their choice. The selected mural image must accompany the submission of the musical piece. Mobilize existing collaborative contacts with IEARN, Musicians Workshop, educational institutions, and other partners and supporters of AMMP to locate young musicians from all regions of the world and invite them to submit simple, original pieces of music that express their own cultural identity and visions of peace and unity. Distribute these to other participants in other regions who will then create additional parts to these compositions, resulting in pieces that contain influences from multiple places and cultures.

For twelve years, Joanne and Fouad Tawfilis have helped us create global harmony through the arts as they nurtured this amazing project. Their efforts have allowed thousands of people in over 100 countries to contribute to an art exhibit dedicated to sending messages of peace, caring, and love around the world. The twelve miles of murals being painted by Art Miles Murals Project participants are destined for the Great Pyramids of Egypt in 2010.
