SUMMARY:Link Up! The Orchestra Moves
DESCRIPTION:Link Up guides students grades 3–5 and music teachers through a months-long exploration of orchestral repertoire supported by extensive\, freely-provided curriculum materials and online resources.  The program culminates in an inclusive performance\, at which students are invited to actively participate by playing recorder or string instrument\, singing and dancing along with the orchestra.  This year’s Link Up program\, The Orchestra Moves\, explores movement within music (melody\, rhythm\, and harmony)\, as well as how music moves those who experience it.  Through the Link Up repertoire\, curriculum activities and a culminating\, interactive symphony concert\, together we will discover how the orchestra moves! \n\nEducators interested in participating in this program will be required to attend a two-hour\, Professional Development Teacher Workshop.\nAll seats are $5 for students and chaperones (1 free chaperone ticket for every 20 students)\, including free digital concert resources and a Spotify concert playlist.\nNeed-based transportation grants are available through our Safelite Bee-thoven Express Bus Grant program.\n\n  \nPlease register your school group HERE! \n(YPC performances are for school groups only and are not public events.) \n  \n
