UpBeat kids will be participating in NYC's first seminario this December at the DiMenna Center for Classical Music. Students from local El Sistema inspired programs will join together in a day of musical activities, rehearsals and performances led by musicians from the Simón Bolivar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela.
The residency by the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela concludes on Wednesday, December 12 at 6:30 p.m. with a free Carnegie Hall Neighborhood Concert held at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music in Manhattan. This concert will be preceded by a New York Seminario, a daylong musical retreat of music-making and learning with more than 100 students and teachers from local El Sistema programs or “nucleos” who will rehearse and perform select repertoire, led by members of the orchestra. The day is presented in partnership with the Orchestra of St. Luke's and designed collaboratively with local program directors including Harmony Program, Corona Youth Music Program, WHIN Program, UpBeat NYC, and Union City Music Project of New Jersey.
