Registration for Link Up, "The Orchestra Rocks," is now closed.
One universal element of music is rhythm. Composers and musicians play with elements of musical time, creating patterns of sound and silence that are expressive and exciting. A consistent groove can unite musicians, singers, and audiences in an experience of listening and performing together. Through the Link Up repertoire, hands-on activities, and a culminating interactive performance with the Oregon Symphony, you will discover how the orchestra ROCKS! This curriculum is designed for students in grades 3-5 who are involved in weekly music classes taught by music specialists.
