Student Spotlight
Sabrina’s Journey from St. Louis to Juilliard
Gateway Music Outreach is thrilled to spotlight Sabrina, a gifted double bassist whose passion and dedication are taking her from St. Louis to a prestigious program at The Juilliard School! Her incredible journey showcases the power of opportunity meeting determination, and we couldn't be prouder.
It started with connection and support. Sabrina joined our Adopt-A-Musician program, designed specifically to break down financial barriers for promising young musicians. Through this income-based scholarship, she gained access to:
- Essential private lessons with expert instructors.
- A quality double bass to practice and perform on.
- Invaluable enrichment opportunities like recitals, masterclasses, and engaging Saturday sessions.
With this strong foundation from Gateway Music Outreach, Sabrina expanded her horizons through the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra’s Peer-to-Peer Mentorship Program, learning from professional musicians and collaborating with peers.
This summer (2025), Sabrina takes a remarkable leap forward! She's earned acceptance into the Sphinx Performance Academy held at The Juilliard School. This elite, full-scholarship national program champions gifted string musicians of color, offering intensive development in chamber music, solo performance, and personal growth.
Sabrina's story is the mission of Gateway Music Outreach in action: opening doors of opportunity for personal, social, and scholastic advancement of youth through music. . Her success reflects her own immense talent and hard work, amplified by the belief and support of mentors, educators, and partners.
Congratulations, Sabrina, on this outstanding achievement!
