Anyone familiar with Yamaha knows that the company has a deep commitment to music advocacy and education. On its own and in partnership with organizations like the American Music Conference (AMC), AMC parent organization NAMM-International Music Products Association and VH1, Yamaha strives to spread the benefits of music making and access to music education to everyone in America through programs like the Yamaha Music Education System, the Yamaha Junior Original Concert, and funding of important scientific research. Other music-related companies engage in similar work. It’s a natural fit.
