Opus 118 Harlem School of Music is a non-profit community music school based in Harlem, New York City, dedicated to providing high-quality music education to underserved youth. It serves more than 700 children through in-school, after-school, and community programs. The organization was founded in 1991 by Roberta Guaspari and Ed Miller after budget cuts threatened to end Guaspari's music classes. The founders, with involvement from students, parents, and renowned musicians Arnold Steinhardt and Isaac Stern, helped reinstate the program, and the organization has since expanded its reach.

As part of the music education sector in New York, Opus 118 operates as a small, community-focused organization, delivering programming through schools and local venues. Its work targets Harlem youth and their families, seeking to provide ongoing access to quality music instruction through multiple touchpoints.
