The BSM has always aimed to reach out to all sections of society through music. Since inception, we have been providing Freeships and Scholarships to talented children otherwise unable to afford professional training.

Through a cultural collaboration with the Royal College of Music, Stockholm and S.I.D.A, we have been able to successfully enlarge and expand the Music-Outreach Program, in 2003.

This project,  provides free professional music tuitions to 250 children, who are a mix of the visually impaired, handicapped, destitute and the children of prisoners serving life-sentences. Instruments of their choice are provided for the children, who are schooled and nutured to draw out their individual talents and undiscovered potential. The aims of the collaboration are mainly for total development of children via music-personality, intelligence, vocal skills building confidence, gaining social skills and integration in general society. All effort has been put in by the School, the teachers and volunteers to make the children feel at home and like a part of the school. Talent is ultimately nurtured into a defined skill and many children could go on to become performing artistes, music teachers, and an inspiration to others. Identifies talented but underprivileged children and helps in their development.
