About

Founded in 2003 by American baritone Thomas Hampson, the Hampsong Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization which creates platforms to support and proliferate the art of classic song—poetry set to music—from around the world as a means to enhance communication and understanding among cultures. We share our findings with the public—and especially students and educators—through workshops, master classes, recordings, performances—and above all—new media. Through this website, HampsongFoundation.org, and its sister website, SongofAmerica.net, we provide rich interactive resources and meeting places for educators, students, singers, and lovers of song. For a more detailed description of the projects that we have undertaken since our founding, please visit The Hampsong Foundation: Brief History and Timeline below.

The Projects explore the connections between poetry and music, history and culture, research and performance, society and song. Through this work, the Foundation seeks to deepen our understanding of song as the most personal and natural form of human expression, vital for communication in our lives today.
