Seraphic Fire’s Impact Through Education

Through educational programming, Seraphic Fire aims to steward the next generation of music lovers and offer resources to the most in-need students in our community.

Seraphic Fire Youth Initiative

In partnership with the University of Miami, and Florida International University, Seraphic Fire offers a free music education program serving elementary, middle, and high school students in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Collier counties. This initiative consists of three main parts:

• The Choral Education Residency (CER): A weekly program at 2 elementary schools designed to be a high-impact, sustainable model for music education and teaching artistry.

• In-School Workshops: Three 45-minute workshops presented by a quartet of professionals, where students learn music theory fundamentals, music history, ethnomusicology, and vocal technique by participating in interactive vocal exercises and workshop quizzes.

• Education Concerts: Presented at the end of each academic semester, the Seraphic Fire professional ensemble performs a guided tour of a subscription concert. At these concerts, students from the CER have the opportunity to perform on their own and alongside Seraphic Fire in front of an audience of their peers.

High School Master Class

Once a year, Seraphic Fire brings together outstanding high school choral students from Miami-Dade County Public Schools for a 1-day masterclass, exposing students to a high level of musicianship and artistry as they work with and learn from the artists and conductors of Seraphic Fire.
