offer performance tips as students demonstrate their recorder/singing parts.teach lessons that help prepare students for the Link Up concerts.Students will be well-acquainted with their Music Mentor by the time of the concert and will be able to identify and connect with them onstage when the Music Mentors are featured performers. Music mentors make two visits to each Link Up school that chooses to participate: once when the students are first being introduced to the curriculum (January), and again just a few weeks before the concert (February/early March). They introduce themselves and their instruments to students, perform in classrooms, work with students on the Link Up curriculum, and offer performance tips as students demonstrate the recorder/singing parts they’ve been learning. Music mentors will work with students one classroom at a time.
Through this component of our Link Up program, A2SO musicians will be employed as “Music Mentors” who make school visits to work with students and teachers that are participating in the Link Up program. The Music Mentor program in its second year of existence with the A2SO, strives to deepen the relationship between the orchestra and our Link Up schools.
