New York, London and Tokyo –
The Apogee Foundation has announced that it is launching programs to celebrate sacred musical expression around the world. Apogee's sacred music programs are being introduced as a core component of the Foundation's longstanding
Synergy Programs, which provide gifted artists from diverse cultures opportunities for creative empowerment through the sharing of their artistry with each other and mankind.
Apogee's new sacred music programs continue the evolution of the Foundation's mission to foster "the apogee of human excellence" at the intersection of every culture's most inspiring forms of genius and highest expressions of values.
These developments continue the pattern of Apogee's growth: from its origins more than a decade ago working to revitalize the former Soviet Union's collapsing performing arts training systems, to a leading force promoting human creative potential around the globe.
More information about these and other Apogee programs can be found on the Foundation's website:

Kenneth Schneider said "Sacred musical expression arises at the highest nexus of human creative and spiritual potential, and therefore represents a true apogee of human excellence for all cultures. It is a privilege for Apogee to foster the continued vitality of these traditions around the world, and to encourage the sharing of their power among all peoples."
