Music rocks when it is powerful and edgy, and when it propels both audiences and performers into motion. Rhythm, defined as the organization of sounds in silence, is a key element in music that rocks as composers and musicians use patterns and grooves to drive music forward. Rock music embodies this propulsive quality with its amplified and electric sounds. Through the Link Up repertoire, hands-on activities, and a culminating interactive performance with a professional orchestra, we will experience how it feels when the orchestra rocks.

We hope you’ll join us for this interactive educational concert. Students will be encouraged to sing, play, and move with the Virginia Symphony Orchestra.

This specific performance is geared towards private school and homeschool groups.

YMV, a 501c3 nonprofit organization, is in its third decade of serving homeschool families and the community with a faculty and staff of about 30 professional adults dedicated to teaching and training students from preschool through high school. Our students come from all over the Hampton Roads/Tidewater area of Virginia, including Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Norfolk, Suffolk, Portsmouth, Smithfield, and Hampton. Some even come from as far away as Williamsburg and North Carolina! Our commitment is not only to teach classes, but to teach life lessons and Godly principles in a social environment that fosters encouragement and mutual support. The YMV program is intended to enhance and support – not replace – the homeschooling experience. In addition, we are dedicated to assisting homeschooling parents to provide their children with extracurricular musical opportunities, such as summer classes, seminars, concert opportunities, performances and ministry outreach.
