• Develop the whole person through opportunities for self-expression, discipline, creativity, and teamwork.
• Achieve excellence through challenging experiences.
• Create, build, and strengthen new and existing communities through the common language of music.
• Appreciate all types of music.
• Provide an opportunity for everyone, where all are valued as individuals.
• Outfit individuals with the power to share music and impact their world.

Results: This year, we created our first ever Da Capo Experience video. Students, faculty, volunteers, and donors performed and shared testimony highlighting the organization's guiding principles. The video was even filmed on site of our newest facility partner! In addition, Da Capo was awarded its first grant through Target® for our inclusive work with the special needs population. This grant has allowed us the opportunity to provide music instruction to over 50 students in several Richmond area public schools.

Programs: Create, build, and strengthen new and existing communities through the common language of music.
