DESTIN, Fla. — A free spring concert featuring student musicians from across Northwest Florida is set to take place Sunday, May 4, at Destin High School, Sinfonia Gulf Coast has announced.

Entitled “Spring Concert: Out of This World,” the performance is said to take listeners on a musical journey through space, featuring iconic pieces including selections from Star Wars and Gustav Holst’s The Planets. The event highlights students from the program’s newest players to its most advanced high school seniors.

“This performance is set to be our most exciting yet. Our students are thrilled to take you on a journey through planetary themes and anthems,” said music director Margaret Gordon.

The 5 p.m. concert will include a special recognition of graduating seniors and the presentation of the 2025 Grace Fulcher Memorial Scholarship to one senior musician.

“The leadership from our seniors has allowed our ensemble to grow in incredible ways,” Ms Gordon said.

“Each one has a bright future ahead of them and we are so excited to see what they will do next!”

Founded in 2005, the Sinfonia Gulf Coast was created to bring both musical entertainment and arts education opportunities to the region. Its youth orchestra program is said to be a vital part of developing the next generation of musicians.

“The Sinfonia Youth Orchestra program is a wonderful catalyst for local young musicians to expand their musical talents,” said music and artistic director Demetrius Fuller.

“But it would not be a full experience without an audience, so we hope everyone will come out and support our youth orchestras.”
