The Young People’s Concerts started in 1941 at Liberty Hall under the direction of the El Paso Symphony Orchestra’s 1st conductor H. Arthur Brown. Since then, approximately 636,000 students have been exposed to their first classical live concert through the Young People’s Concerts. This is the 13th consecutive year the El Paso Symphony Orchestra has collaborated with Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute on these concerts. The students participating in the Link Up curriculum will get to sing and play the recorder or the violin with the orchestra from their seats. This experience often serves as a students’ first concert and provides them with the opportunity to apply the musical concepts they have studied.
