The Florida Orchestra is taking its mission of education straight to students with "TFO on Campus," a 

series of workshops and performances with Music Director Michael Francis that explores making 

music, from conducting to performing. The orchestra will hit two Tampa campuses - the University of 

South Florida and University of Tampa - during the week of January 25th.





Side-by-Side and Conducting Master Class with Michael Francis

Michael Francis leads a side-by-side rehearsal with TFO and USF students on Mozart s Symphony 

No. 39. Then it s the students  turn, as USF graduate students conduct The Florida Orchestra in a 

master class with Francis.



Free, open to the public





"TFO on Campus" is generously sponsored by Ginny Klein in memory of her late husband, Bill Klein, 

an active supporter of The Florida Orchestra who believed music education should be a lifelong 

journey.



"TFO on Campus" is part of the orchestra s renewed mission to bring music to all people of Tampa 

Bay in a wide range of formats, in and out of the concert hall. TFO also has expanded its reach with 

free concerts in hospitals, universities, malls, parks and a veterans center this season.
