A brief history about us!

How can we bring real impact to the world? That’s the kind of question that keeps popping up in our Nawasena founders' heads. It was in January 2023, when our founders first discussed an idea for Nawasena. The idea came as simple as people pressing on a piano key whenever they see one. We thought about how to make a real impact as students, and one answer came to mind, teaching! We opted to focus on music as a subject, because we found that there is a prejudice in society where only the lucky and blessed are able to master a musical instrument. Musical instruments, such as the piano, are often associated with class and wealth. But we here in Nawasena would like to change that by making musical education available for everyone. We specifically work together with Yayasan Tri Asih because we found that music is most beneficial to those with a disability. Not only does music heal, but it also helps the kids from Yayasan Tri Asih to work on their motoric and cognitive skills. 

The name “Nawasena” itself comes from the Sanskrit word which means, “Beautiful hope”. As our name suggests, we here in Nawasena would like to spread beautiful hope, through music, to those around us. We hope that by giving our organisation that name, it will help us achieve our goals. On the 1st of April 2023, we successfully implemented our plans for this organisation and held our first ever class. Aside from our current ’ Nawasena @ Tri Asih project’, we are working on our website, which will feature exciting and educational content in PLAYGROUND: featuring MusicLab, and many more exciting things to come! We hope to keep expanding to be bigger than we ever imagined. For those who can dream, can also achieve!

Humanité, musique, charité!
