About
Sophia Leissner, a current college freshman at New York University, founded MCM because of the support she felt from the town of Milton. Having grown up in Milton, Sophia was always inspired by the prolific musical community in the town; a community which inspired her to learn the piano, guitar, and bass. Music was particularly comforting to many during the pandemic and Sophia wanted to give back to the community during this difficult time. During the summer of 2021, Sophia was lucky enough to perform in the Milton town center, and the familiar faces that passed by, while she did what brought her joy, was miraculous. She decided to enable young children to be able to explore and learn music in a save and fun setting. Therefore, once she turned 18, Sophia founded Milton Community Music. Though MCM is still quite a small non-profit, Sophia hopes to teach piano and basic music theory to children in the community. She is very excited to see MCM grow and connect people in Milton through music.
While Sophia is in college she will only be able to offer music lessons during the summer months of June, July and August.
