Get to Know your S.O.!
Every week, get to know one of your Summerville Orchestra's very own musicians. Hear their stories, how they got here, how they got involved in the orchestra, and most importantly, hear them play the very pieces that inspire(d) them on their own instruments. What better way to connect with your favorite orchestra than to get to know the very players at the heart and center of the music.

Ep. 4 - Jessica Seymour, Cello
Tonight, I'm joined by one of our young cellists, Jessica Seymour! Jessica is a recipient of this season's Bob Stone Award, a former conducting student of mine, recent college graduate, and a newly minted teacher in Berkeley County!
From growing up in Guam, to playing cello during a football game, to her time at CSU, Jessica has quite the unique story! Come hear all about it in tonight's podcast...but don't listen when you're hungry because we talk about Swank Desserts and Wasabi (Summerville) for a while too...
At the end, Jessica will demonstrate her instrument's capabilities and play the "Cantabile" from Camille Saint-Saen's opera, "Samson & Delilah."
