2016-17 Link Up: The Orchestra Moves Registration Form |
Link Up
A Program of the Weill Music Institute at Carnegie Hall
The Eugene Symphony invites public, private, and homeschools within Lane, Benton, Douglas, and Linn County to participate in Link Up and our culminating youth concert, The Orchestra Moves, on Tuesday, February 14, 2017.
Link Up, a program of Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute, pairs orchestras across the country with students in elementary schools in their local communities to explore orchestral repertoire through a hands-on music curriculum. Students participating in Link Up attend a culminating concert where they sing and play recorder or violin with the orchestra from their seats. Students also compose and perform their own pieces inspired by the orchestral music they studied.
