Music is magical in many ways. Besides its beauty and joy it brings, it can also be a wonderful vehicle for musicians to get to know the society we live in, assume social responsibilities, and ultimately take the leadership role of building a better world for everyone.
As a volunteer group (with nonprofit 513(c)(3) status being filed at this moment) founded in Great Neck, NY, by a group of young musicians, educators, and social activists, as well as being strongly supported by Great Neck School District, Play Positive Note's mission is to foster young musicians to better appreciate the power of music, and encourage them to inspire other kids and engage in social activities that give back to the community.
Traditional music education usually focuses on the learning of musics' emotionally expressive aspect, as well as the significant impact on the development of young musicians' character and body. At Play Positive Note, we encourage kids to explore more of music's social functions, and enjoy the compassion satisfaction that comes from influencing others' lives with their music. We believe this would cause a positive feedback loop to the kids' understanding and learning of music. To achieve this goal, here are the programs that we offer.
We celebrate on young musicians' achievements in using their musical talents to help the people around. This scholarship supports and encourages their acts of kindness.
Learn MoreThis program provides with various solo and collaborative performance opportunities for our young musicians to hone their music skills, and gain stage experiences.

Learn MoreDo you know that more than 3 millions of American students have no music class in school, and over 30 millions of children have no books to read? These numbers are so shocking to Lele that so many kids can not experience the beauty of music from books or music instruments themselves, so, as a kid musician and author herself, she felt obligated to do something to improve the situation. Lele donated 50 children's books about music to "Kids Need To Read", a national non-profit organization with its mission of helping the kids to get access to affordable books. It is her sincere hope that all kids could discover the "doubly-dosed" joy of both reading and music.
Lele, on behalf of Play Positive Note, presented a $1000 check as a giveback of the foundation to Sing For Hope (SFH), a NYC-based national known nonprofit organization harnessing the power of music to create a better world. SFH's colorful pianos decorate NYC with music notes and visual arts at the same time. Lele received this fund from Kelly Clarkson Show because of her act of kindness. Now the fund, together with the love it signifies, was passed along to generate more spirit-lifting pianos and music to the people in the city as well as throughout the whole country. Music is contagious, and so is love.
