One Vision One Voice

Welcome to OVOV

The mission of One Vision One Voice (OVOV) is to challenge students to maximize their talent in a way that will nurture their growth and lifetime well being. This is accomplished through exposing students to local musicians who will allow their own works to be used as teaching tools. Through the use of the musician’s works, students will learn editing and enhancement techniques that will result in a customized CD. Students will be exposed to the inner workings of songwriting and production, the operation of recording studios and also the important business development component of writing and producing music. OVOV has identified songwriters, musicians, directors, vocal instructors, and producers to enhance the programs developmental process and ensure students receive a global perspective relative to music production and sales.

As the State of Louisiana seeks to strengthen its infrastructure in this Post-Katrina and Rita era, the need to develop more creative and viable approaches to promoting learning and providing resources to our schools has taken a greater dimension. OVOV promotes music education and generates resources that enhance music programs in New Orleans Schools. OVOV is a program of the District 2 Community Enhancement Corporation that is funded solely through grants and donations from individuals just like you. Please help in any way that you can!
