Course description: The SCSO embarks on its third international tour to Chile in May 2022. Previous SCSO tours to Spain in 2014 and Argentina in 2017 have included performances in major venues in  Zaragoza, Castellon, Murcia and Granada (Spain) and in Cordoba, Rosario, Parana and Buenos Aires (Argentina). The SCSO international tours provide a unique cultural experience as well as a unique performance opportunity to its members by organizing concerts in major venues that are part of the host country/presenters' subscription series. The performances are scheduled in such a way as to provide the students with a "professional" experience similar to those organized by major professional orchestras throughout the world. The SCSO has, thus, performed to almost sold-out concerts in each city it has visited. 

Cost: $2,100. Cost includes roundtrip airfare from Dulles, some meals, accommodation and in-country travel. 

Meals/Accommodations:  Hotel accommodation included. Hotels will be booked (double occupancy for students). Breakfast is provided at the hotel (s). Lunch and dinner is the responsibility of the student. There are plenty of restaurants to chose from. 

Visas: No visa is required for US citizens. Other nationalities should verify with their embassy regarding possible visa requirements. Proof of COVID-19 vaccination is required.
