The teaching of music is free of charge for all students. A small fee is paid by students in order

to cover the maintenance costs of the instruments and to engage them into serious participation into the LeBAM activities.

Recruitment of music students, girls and boys, is effected in collaboration with local schools,

targeting the 10 to 18 age bracket (exceptionally, younger or older students could be enrolled),

residing in the vicinity of every LeBAM branch.

Every effort is made, in the recruitment and selection of students, to target the neediest sections

of the population, including favoring recruitment with public schools.

No regard is given to gender, religious or political affiliation of students and their parents, as a

sign that LeBAM is absolutely neutral to these factors, being non-political, non-sectarian. It

rather seeks to use music as a unifying language and factors of all Lebanese irrespective of

their creeds and affiliation.

All students are expected to commit to learn music, play in a local community harmonic band

and take good care of the instrument that is freely put at their disposal by LeBAM.

To facilitate access to the Brach centers and schools, transportation is made available in most cases. Check availabilities with Branch directors.

Also, all experienced musicians in the concerned geographic areas are invited to join the

community harmonic bands. Every effort possible will be made to maintain the interest and

activity of musicians beyond youth to adulthood and old-age.
