April 2018 News: Our Newest Fellow and Special Guest Residency

Street Symphony is dedicated to illuminating musical and artistic voices from within the Skid Row community. This month’s spotlight is on our newest Fellow, Malek Vossough. A resident of The Midnight Mission for 16 months, Malek graduated from the Mission’s Healthy Living Program in 2015. While residing at the Mission, Malek, who is an incredible violinist – with particular talent in Near-Eastern, Middle Eastern, and Arabic music -attended several Music With A Mission events. A friendship was born, and Street Symphony was honored to provide Malek with violin lessons, which helped ensure his readmission to the music department at CSUN. As a Street Symphony Fellow, Malek will continue to receive lessons venturing into composition and arranging, while completing his desgree at CSUN and using his unique postion as aspiring professional musician – and member of the Skid Row community – to connect to his community through the power of music.
