Join us for our annual Spring Recital, a celebration of learning, growth, and music in our community.
Saturday, June 6, 2026
3:00 PM to 5:00 PM
Teatro Esperanza
4261 North 5th Street, Philadelphia, PA
This year’s recital features students from AMLA’s 2025 to 2026 school year, including participants from private lessons, after-school programs, the Puerto Rican Cuatro Project, and our new recorder ensemble in collaboration with Piffaro The Renaissance Band.
Our recital reflects the process of learning. Students of all ages, from children to adults, will share what they have been working on and exploring through music. For many, this is their first experience with formal music education, and this performance offers a meaningful opportunity to step into that work and share it with others.
Despite changes in programming this year, AMLA has continued to provide access to music education across our community. This recital reflects that commitment and the dedication of our students and faculty.
The program will begin promptly at 3:00 PM and will run without intermission.
Admission is free. Seating is limited, and registration is required.
Reserve your seats at EsperanzaArtCenter.us
We look forward to celebrating with you.
