The Myrtle Hart Society (MHS), a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) charitable organization, was founded to promote the achievements of classical musicians of color and to develop new audiences for classical music among people of color. We use electronic and other media to "illuminate the accomplishments of classical musicians of color" and to help encourage increased participation in the musical arts through the mediums of education, research and performance. This helps to nurture and maintain higher standards of artistic excellence among our musicians and to forge new partnerships with orchestras and arts organizations across the United States. Our membership includes classical instrumentalists, vocalists, composers and conductors of African descent from Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Europe, and the Caribbean. MHS believes that the diverse backgrounds of our members ameliorate the future of classical music.
