Project Title: Link Up
Project Description:

The Link Up program brings high-quality music education to over 2000 students in Title 1 schools across South Florida. It provides an opportunity for elementary school schools to develop musical abilities and allows performance through singing and instrument playing with professional musicians at a culminating symphony concert. Volta partnered with Carnegie Hall to leverage Link Up’s acclaimed curriculum and resources to transform basic school music programs into dynamic learning experiences.
Schools that Volta engaged have been defunded or lack arts programming. Volta understands that arts programs can improve school performance and social developmental skills for students with low-income backgrounds; this is why we target Title I schools in South Florida with greater need. Volta provides free instruments that include recorders for all students enrolled; Volta also supports transportation for students to attend the final concert at The Parker Playhouse Theater for Broward County students and the World Theater at Lynn University for Plam Beach County students.
School educators receive training through Volta to prepare and deliver the curriculum, as well as support from Volta mentor visits, which our organization schedules throughout the school year. The final highly participatory concert with a symphonic orchestra at The Parker Playhouse and Wold Theater is for students to sing and play along with a symphony orchestra to culminate the program. Students will perform the songs they learned throughout the year and play on the donated recorders that Volta provided.
