About The Program

By any definition, music moves. As organized sound, music moves through time and space from high to low, creating patterns and motifs. Using Orff Schulwerk strategies and complementary creative movement activities, we will discover all the interwoven ways in which the orchestra moves.

Includes student materials, one teacher guide, and concert music. Student Halo Recorders are available to order at a discounted rate through Peripole.

What is Link Up?

Carnegie Hall’s Link Up program pairs orchestras with students specifically in grades 3–5 and provides the opportunity to learn about, listen to, and perform great music. Students participating in Link Up explore an interactive curriculum in which they learn to sing and play an instrument in the classroom before performing with the orchestra from their seats at a culminating concert.

Teachers may choose from one of three program paths: Basic, Basic+, or Advanced, depending on the level of involvement they would like to have for their students.
