Case Study: AdagioX achieves scalable, affordable online music education with Dacast

How AdagioX is Using Online Video to Enrich Music Programs

AdagioX is a Minneapolis-based music education startup that creates affordable, scalable masterclasses and resources for students and school programs, especially those in underfunded or rural areas affected by COVID-19. To deliver live and on-demand orchestral instruction to a wide audience without per-user fees, AdagioX selected Dacast for reliable OTT streaming and on-demand video hosting, using features like live-to-VOD, Folders, and Expos to organize and present content.

Using Dacast’s platform, AdagioX live-streams classes and then publishes them on-demand, enabling rapid growth without steep plan jumps; Dacast’s tools also streamline content management and immersive galleries. The results: 1,000+ monthly livestream masterclasses offered free to K–12 students, 1,000+ orchestra students served across 16+ countries, and 200+ on-demand archived masterclasses, with continued expansion of schools and students supported by Dacast.
