The USF College of Design, Art & Performance and The Florida Orchestra have formed a new partnership to elevate music education, inspire artistic expression and strengthen community 
engagement. As part of the collaboration, the USF Symphony Orchestra will work directly with internationally acclaimed conductors. TFO Music Director Michael Francis, serving as artist-in-
residence at USF, provides students with professional-level ensemble experiences that will help shape them as musicians and prepare them for future success.

Celebrate the collaboration that connects students, audiences and the broader Tampa Bay community through the shared language of music.
