Since 2003, Cell C has sponsored the Durban Music School - an institution committed to the development of musical talent and providing affordable education to young people from KwaZulu-Natal who wish to study music. Known for training musical prodigies, the school has gone from strength to strength.
Located on Diakonia Avenue in central Durban, the school teaches the basics of music, how to read music, how to play musical intruments and music theory. to learners aged ten and up. Lessons are offered on diverse music genres including classical and jazz. Great effort is taken to cater for each student's musical preferences, and give each student the necessary personal attention. The majority of students come from disadvantaged family backgrounds and are funded through bursaries.
In addition to its annual Christmas Concert, the school also holds the annual Cell C Street Festival, which has become a highlight of the Celebrate Durban initiative.
