Music Peace

Music Peace is a visionary artist and project dedicated to the transformative power of music in fostering peace and understanding. Through the MUSIC FOR YOUTH (MyPEACE) Project, Music Peace empowers young individuals to engage in peacebuilding processes, using music as a tool for storytelling and cultural exchange. Their work delves into the multifaceted concept of peace, exploring it through a rich tapestry of musical styles and cultural influences.

Music Peace's repertoire includes powerful compositions like Terry Riley's "One Earth, One People, One Love," Sarah Kirkland Snider's "You Are Free," and Augusta Read Thomas's "Of Paradise & Light," each reflecting on themes of resilience and hope. Their critically acclaimed festivals and performances, such as the upcoming event at Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture, showcase new and impactful musical pieces that resonate deeply with audiences. Additionally, Music Peace's album "Listen To Peace," though no longer available for physical purchase, is a timeless collection that can be experienced within "The Early Years 1975 - 1981" set. Their work often intertwines poetry and music to commemorate significant historical events, such as the anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, underscoring the enduring relevance of their artistic vision.
