MissionTo develop and promote the use of just intonation in music of diverse genres. To foster International and Intercultural friendship and understanding by producing and participating in cultural events that highlight traditional and contemporary art forms from around the world. To promote the application of Wholistic principles to culture and the arts, and the evolution and development of new music and art based upon these principles.
VisionWe live in a time of unprecedented International Travel and Communication. This has spawned a sharing of knowledge and culture that allows the people of all nations to benefit from the experience of other nations. A composite world culture is developing from the traditional roots of the various nations. This culture incorporates a global view in which all humanity shares and stewards the Earth together. It's riches include the Arts, Sciences, Technologies, Languages and Philosophy, developed throughout the Earth throughout history. A composite World Music is developing, which includes elements from diverse traditions, combined and reapplied to reflect this cosmopolitan global culture. In this process of growth, World Harmony Project seeks to maintain the integrity of diverse musical expressions by preserving the intonational characteristics of their musical roots. This is accomplished by means of instruments and tuning standards that enable this expression. World Harmony Project fosters cooperation among the peoples of the Earth, for mutual benefit. This is accomplished through Educational and Cultural activities with a sustainable, global vision.
