L'Espace Musical is a non-profit association. Since its creation in 1992, its main objective has been to make music accessible to all without cultural, physical or social exclusion.

The Espace Musical is the only association to have created its own scholarship fund, the Sostenuto fund.

As the only association to have created its own scholarship fund, the Sostenuto fund, as early as 2000, the Espace Musical was also the first music school in Geneva to follow, as early as 2005, a policy of solidarity with fees staggered according to income.

The association's main missions

• Foster children's musical learning through innovative pedagogy that responds to their need for creativity and autonomy
• Provide accessible courses, with no prerequisites, and a flexible, structured path for each student from early childhood to adolescence
• Offer courses for children with special needs or disabilities
• Encourage instrumental practice among children in Geneva by running music workshops in schools and nurseries
• Share our pedagogical know-how with Early Childhood and DIP professionals through training courses
.

In June 2010 l'Espace Musical was accredited by the DIP and is part of the Confédération des écoles genevoises de musique, danse et théâtre (CEGM).

Each family of a registered student automatically becomes a member of the association. The annual fee, invoiced at the beginning of the school year, goes towards the scholarship fund.
