About the Concert
The Link Up program is provided through our partnership with Carnegie Hall (learn more here). Students in grades 3-5 learn music to sing and play on the recorder. At our concert, they join the orchestra to perform together from their seats in Hill Auditorium!
About our Welcoming Space
We are thrilled to provide a Welcoming space for the first time at our youth concert. People of all ages who have unique sensory needs and who are enriched by special accommodations are warming welcomed into our sensory-friendly environment.
