new world for them,” he says, adding that
two performances are scheduled to accommodate
all 1,500 fifth-graders. “This early
exposure has actually changed some of
those young lives, inspiring them to learn
to play an instrument and pursue a career
in music.”
Vero Beach residents can also hear the
BSO perform locally during the May Pops
concert sponsored by the Cleveland Clinic
Indian River Foundation. The outdoor concert
will be held at Windsor Polo Club on
May 5. This time-honored tradition marks
an end to the Vero Beach cultural season
and is a truly elegant afternoon.
“The BSO’s commitment to the community
is one of the things that inspired me to
interview for the executive director’s position,”
says Schillhammer. “The first time I
saw them on stage they were performing
side by side with the Brevard Symphony
Youth Orchestra giving budding young
musicians a chance to share the stage with
professionals. It was mesmerizing.”
With so many performances from the
Treasure Coast to the Space Coast, there is
no reason not to experience the excitement
and passion of the Brevard Symphony Orchestra.
