Music Mobile ™

Since 1971, Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts, through its celebrated Music Mobile program, has brought the magic of music to third graders in and around San Gabriel Valley.

Since 2005, Pasadena Showcase has partnered with the Pasadena Conservatory of Music to deliver this often firsttime musical experience to young people.

Over the years, the program introduced classical music and instruments that make up an orchestra to nearly 130,000 students. Through an entertaining, child-friendly presentation, students received hands-on experience by gaining valuable exposure to symphonic music. The program received numerous local and national awards for originality and educational excellence.

At this time, a reinvention of our Music Mobile program is underway, which, once completed, will surprise and delight the students and teachers it serves now into the future. Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts and Pasadena Conservatory of Music saw an opportunity to bring the Music Mobile to relevancy by focusing on the basics of music: rhythm, harmony, melody, and color, which are common to all music traditions around the world. The student experience will be illustrated through music-making and animation. The creative process continues and an exciting new Music Mobile program will launch in October 2025!

So stay tuned!
