Weill Music Institute at Carnegie Hall Communities LinkUP! Program
By special arrangement, the Communities LinkUP! program provides fourth grade students of the Fort Worth Independent School District and their teachers the opportunity to infuse symphonic music into their curriculum. The LinkUP! program takes students on a journey inside the construction of a musical work. Students learn the ways in which composers use theme and variation to create their compositions. Through participation in selected works, students experience different ways of listening to music. The program will culminate in two performances in March, 2011, in which students will answer questions, sing, and play recorder to demonstrate the concepts they have learned. |
