"The music we heard during today's visit from The Ondas Ensemble was both familiar and energetic!
My students enjoyed learning about each of the instruments and hearing first hand how they sound together as duets or trios.
It was all we could do to keep ourselves from 'tango-ing' out of the auditorium!"

NEWS!

In October 2008 Ondas received a grant from the Evanston Cultural Fund/Evanston Arts Council (a city agency) to perform concerts at District 65 Elementary Schools:  Washington, Dawes and Oakton. 

Ondas would like to thank the music teachers at these schools: Pam Avemaria, Stephanie Abdeyah and Monica Blacconeri for their support and enthusiasm for this program highlighting intercultural awareness.

Educational Mission Statement

Central to Ondas' mission is the promotion of Latino-inspired compositions among students of all ages and levels of accomplishment.

The ensemble's goal is to enrich the lives of young people through outreach presentations in public schools. Ensemble members are also available for masterclass and lecture recitals in colleges and universities.

Cultural understanding and diversity are the mainstays of Ondas' educational mission.
