BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – The Space Coast Symphony Orchestra will open its 18th performing season with style, swing, and a whole lot of personality when its Jazz Orchestra presents Sinatra and the Wonderful World of Oz on Saturday, June 20, at 2 p.m.

The concert at the Scott Center for the Performing Arts, 5625 Holy Trinity Drive in North Melbourne, brings together two unforgettable worlds: the wide-eyed wonder of The Wizard of Oz and the effortless cool of Frank Sinatra.

Andrew Cleaver leads the Jazz Orchestra, joined by Central Florida crooner Mark Romeo.

The concert starts with Phil Wilson’s jazz reimagining of treasured songs from Over the Rainbow, followed by the iconic “One O’Clock Jump,” the signature theme song of the Count Basie Orchestra.

Then the program transforms into a live recreation of Sinatra at the Sands, the legendary 1966 Copa Room performance widely considered the greatest live recording Sinatra ever made.

Guest vocalist Mark Romeo will sing the songs of “Old Blue Eyes” from that iconic night, including “Come Fly with Me,” “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” “Fly Me to the Moon,” “It Was a Very Good Year,” “My Kind of Town,” and more.

The rich sound of the live jazz orchestra promises an opening concert that’s stylish, magical, and exceptionally enjoyable – $35 tickets for Sinatra & the Wonderful World of Oz are available through the orchestra website at SpaceCoastSymphony.org or at Marine Bank & Trust branches.

The Space Coast Symphony Orchestra is one of only a handful of U.S. orchestras to perform year-round. Their Season 18 programming officially kicks off June 20 and 21 with the SCSO Jazz Orchestra concert: Sinatra & the Wonderful World of Oz.

Andrew Cleaver, Space Coast Symphony Jazz Orchestra Bandleader, will preside over the concert that could be described as Big Band Meets the Yellow Brick Road.

Cleaver toured extensively as the lead saxophonist for the Air Force’s Glenn Miller Band in Europe before performing and recording with the prestigious Airmen of Note.

“This amazing jazz concert will feel a lot like a supper club performance,” said Mr. Cleaver. “It turns out ‘Old Blue Eyes’ took the yellow brick road straight to the Copa Room of the Sands in 1966.”
