Behind Bars: Music at Sing Sing

I think that the only thing that can combat that feeling of isolation and aloneness and depression is hope - Rob (a participant in Carnegie Hall's music program for inmates)

Carnegie Hall brings musical performances and workshops into correctional facilities to contribute to inmates’ rehabilitation, preparing them to return to life outside of prison. Carnegie Hall’s work at Sing Sing Correctional Facility reaches 1,200 inmates and guards each year. Selected inmates participate in a yearlong composition workshop led by composer Daniel Levy. These men earn a place in the program by demonstrating a commitment to education and personal development. Learn more about Carnegie Hall's program here.
