Held in Dr. Philips Center’s world class performance facilities, students get the opportunity to learn from, and perform for, nationally recognized music educators.

  • Written and recorded adjudication of their performance by nationally recognized authorities in instrumental music education.
  • Post-performance clinic with a member of a panel of nationally renowned clinician-educators.
  • VIP tickets for all participating students and directors as guests of the UCF Orchestras for the special evening concert presented by the UCF Symphony Orchestra in Steinmetz Hall, in conjunction with UCF Celebrates the Arts.
