The National Federation of Music Clubs and RMS
The Rappahannock Music Society is affiliated with the National Federation of Music Clubs and is therefore a part of their efforts to support music throughout America and the world. With a membership of over 155,000 musicians and non-musicians who love and support the performing arts, NFMC is a non-profit organization and the largest philanthropic musical organization in the world.
About NFMC
Founded in 1898, NFMC has a rich musical heritage. The Federation is proud to be an NGO member of the United Nations and is chartered by the Congress of the United States.
Approximately $750,000 in scholarship and award opportunities are offered to young musicians from all age groups at the Local, State, and National Federation levels. At the 2007 NFMC National Convention in Salt Lake City, Utah, four $10,000 first prizes plus a two-year management service were awarded to winners in the Young Artist categories of Strings, Piano, Women's Voice, and Men's Voice.
NFMC members love music and are highly supportive of quality music education in America. Please visit our website at: www.nfmc-music.org.
