The Carnegie Hall Weill Institute of Music’s “Link Up” program is an internationally acclaimed education program that allows students to connect through music and perform with a symphony orchestra. This is the tenth consecutive year that the TBSO has participated in “Link Up.”

For 2022-2023, Thunder Bay’s Grades 4-6 students have the opportunity to participate in the new “The Orchestra Rocks” program. 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 Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra, we will discover how the orchestra rocks. Teachers can access and download the Teacher Guide for “The Orchestra Rocks” from the Link Up website: Carnegie Hall: The Orchestra Rocks
