About this Resource

We have great news to share!

There are a multitude of exciting musical pursuits beyond high school for a lifetime of active engagement. These include innovative musical career paths, dedicated music programs, research-creation projects and centres, community music-making opportunities, and recreation and leisure activities. 

The Music Pathways Project (TMPP) is a living resource to support students who are passionate about music. Learn about the diverse options available to them as they consider post-secondary steps. We invite students, educators, guidance counsellors, and parents to explore this resource dedicated to helping them imagine the possibilities.

About the Music Pathways Project

Lynn Tucker

The early days of this project began with a dedicated volunteer team of UTSC students and alumni: Christina Beharry, Tai Chan, Eunillyne Lazado, and Angela Tran. They readily shared their lived experiences regarding their post-secondary discipline choices and how keeping music in the mix was a challenge. They each found their own unique path and generously engaged with the work to ensure future students were equipped with the necessary information so they could see a broader scope of music options available to them as they took their first steps in establishing their careers. We are grateful for their many efforts in building a strong foundation upon which the current project grows.

Today, we continue The Music Pathways Project evolution and are informed by the amazing work of conversations such as those being led by SoundLife Scarborough, a vibrant research centre at the University of Toronto Scarborough. This includes two recent forums that focused on accessible music pathways (May 2023; March 2024).
