Welcome

We are a nationwide community of professional composers, music educators and music organizations who connect and collaborate in support of music education and the creation of new music. CSIC connects professional composers and high school music programs to provide hands-on workshops, private mentoring sessions, school presentations and public performances. These collaborations result in CSIC Projects throughout the country. CSIC provides commissions, grants, connection tools, an online community, and all the resources needed to support these projects.

Composer Spotlight

School Spotlight

Participants at the Creative Musicians Retreat are a diverse group: amateur and professional musicians of all ages, undergraduate students, graduate students, composers and improvisers who come together for a week of creative music-making.

Initially known for their flagship program, The Young Musicians Program, (upon which the organization was founded in 1972, and in which students ages 9-18 participate in a five-week experience that is part camp, part school and part festival), The Walden School has more recently branched out into programs for adults musicians. If you’re a composer or educator interested in expanding your skills in music composition take a look at Walden’s Creative Musician’s retreat. Read More
