Background
Bloom is a Juilliard- and Yale-trained composer and pianist who has worked in both classical and popular music. He is the founder and director of Renovation In Music Education (RIME), and Musicorps.
Bloom created the original "Concert Curriculum," An Orchestra's Guide To The Young Person, a program in which whole grades of students pursue a special curriculum that culminates in their performance with a professional orchestra. Working with NASA, Bloom created An Orchestra's Guide To The Universe, a science version of the Concert Curriculum. After visiting wounded warriors at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Bloom created MusiCorps to help them in their recovery.
MusiCorps
MusiCorps is a music rehabilitation program at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center that helps severely wounded service members learn to play music, and recover their lives. Bloom began the program after visiting a soldier at Walter Reed Army Medical Center who played the drums and lost a leg in combat.
Bloom leads the MusiCorps Wounded Warrior Band which is composed of service members who have learned or relearned instruments through MusiCorps, and has performed with Aaron Neville, Yo-Yo Ma, Oleta Adams, G.E. Smith, Dave Kilminster, Roger Waters, Ricky Skaggs, and the Kansas City Symphony, among others.
