Designed for upper-grade musicians
Side by side
With SCSO professional musicians
Epic Series
Rehearse and perform with the orchestra
Learn from inside the sound
The fastest way to understand an orchestra is to sit inside one.
Mentorship fellows work directly with SCSO professionals on performance technique and musicianship. They hear how a professional section listens, adjusts, breathes, and moves together—then put those lessons into practice in rehearsal and performance.
01 / Listen
Listen closer.
Work with professional musicians on the details that turn notes into communication: technique, sound, timing, and ensemble awareness.
02 / Rehearse
Rehearse for real.
Prepare Epic Series repertoire in the same room, on the same schedule, and alongside the musicians who bring it to the stage.
03 / Perform
Take the stage.
Selected participants perform side-by-side with the Space Coast Symphony Orchestra on the Epic Series.
