BREVARD COUNTY • SATELLITE BEACH, FLORIDA – Couples and families looking for a unique Valentine’s weekend experience are being invited to travel to distant galaxies and cinematic worlds through music when the Space Coast Symphony Orchestra presents Out of This World, a concert featuring some of Hollywood’s most iconic science fiction film scores.

The performance is scheduled for Saturday, February 14 at 7 p.m. at the Satellite High School Performing Arts Center in Satellite Beach. Designed as an immersive cinematic experience, the concert will feature live orchestral performances synchronized with projected clips from the original films, allowing audiences to experience the powerful connection between music and imagery.

The program includes multiple selections by legendary composer John Williams, including Across the Stars from Star Wars Episode II Attack of the Clones and The Star Wars Saga. Music from Star Trek is also featured, including Jerry Goldsmith’s Star Trek First Contact and the Symphonic Suite from Star Trek. The concert further explores the genre with selections from the Alien film franchise, as well as music from Independence Day, Cocoon, The X Files, and Avatar The Way of Water.

Space Coast Symphony Orchestra Conductor and Artistic Director Aaron T. Collins said the concert reflects the enduring popularity of science fiction film music and its ability to engage audiences of all ages. He noted that many orchestra members plan to dress as characters from well known sci fi films, and audience members are encouraged to do the same.

Collins emphasized that the concert also serves as an opportunity to introduce young people to orchestral music, with free admission offered to concertgoers 18 and under as well as college students with a valid ID.

Guest conductor Frederick Blanchard will lead two works on the program, including music from Cocoon and Williams’ Across the Stars. Blanchard, a former student of Collins, is an emerging conductor and educator based in Florida and currently serves in multiple music education and leadership roles across the state.

Tickets for Out of This World are available for $35 through the Space Coast Symphony Orchestra website and at Marine Bank and Trust in Suntree, with tickets priced at $40 at the door. The concert is part of the orchestra’s 2025 26 season, continuing its mission to provide year round professional performances at accessible prices.

The Space Coast Symphony Orchestra is composed of professional musicians and music educators from across Florida and is recognized for its commitment to living composers, music education, and community accessibility.
