Lullaby Project Brings Music and Connection to NYC Families

October 7, 2025 - 03:33

NYC Health + Hospitals’ Arts in Medicine department has teamed up with Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute to launch a new season of the Lullaby Project. This innovative initiative aims to strengthen the bond between parents and their newborns through the creation of personalized lullabies.

The Lullaby Project invites parents, particularly those facing challenging circumstances, to work alongside professional musicians to compose unique songs for their babies. This collaborative effort not only provides a creative outlet for parents but also fosters emotional connections that are vital for early childhood development.

During sessions, parents share their stories, experiences, and hopes for their children, which are then transformed into beautiful lullabies. The project has received positive feedback from participants, with many expressing how the experience has deepened their relationships with their infants.

As the new season unfolds, NYC Health + Hospitals and Carnegie Hall are excited to continue this heartwarming initiative, bringing music and joy to families across the city.
