OneBeat is an international cultural exchange that celebrates the transformative power of the arts through the creation of original, inventive music, and people-to-people diplomacy. OneBeat brings young musicians (ages 19-35) from around the world to the U.S. for one month to collaboratively write, produce, and perform original music, and develop ways that music can make a positive impact on our local and global communities. More than a performance program, OneBeat balances three principles — dialogue, creation, and social engagement — to foster mutual understanding and cooperation among citizens of the world.
Age
OneBeat is open to musicians ages 19-35. Applicants must be 19 or older at the time of application and 35 or younger at the end of the program (October 2014).
