Carnegie Hall is pleased to present the West Virginia University Symphony Orchestra in concert on Wednesday, Apr. 17 at 7 p.m. Concert tickets are on sale now – only $15/adults and $7/students. The performance will be conducted by Rotem Weinberg, WVU’s Director of Orchestral Activities.
The program will include Villa Lobos’ Sinfonietta No. 1, Beethoven’s Piano concert No. 5 “Emperor,” movements 2 and 3, and Brahms’ Variations on a Theme by Joseph Haydn.
In addition, the WVU Symphony Orchestra will be performing daytime Link Up concerts on Thursday, Apr. 18. Joining the WVU Symphony for the Link Up concerts will be over 500 fifth grade Greenbrier County students and special guest vocalist from Greenbrier East High School under the direction of Ms. Carrie Neese.
Link Up, a program of Weill Music Institute of Carnegie Hall in New York City, pairs orchestras across the country with students in grade three through five to explore orchestral repertoire through a hands-on music curriculum. Students from Greenbrier County will participate in the Link Up concert where they will sing along and play recorders with the orchestra.
Carnegie Hall would like to thank the Greenbrier County Commission and Greenbrier County Schools for their support of Link Up.
