Space Coast Symphony Orchestra presents "Somewhere" with superstar vocalist, Emmet Cahill.

November 22, 2026 3:00pm
The Emerson Center

"Songs about the places we long to find and the people who make them feel like home."

Every great song is about somewhere else. Somewhere over the rainbow. Somewhere a place for us. Somewhere just past the edge of the life we're actually living.

Emmet Cahill joins your orchestra for a night of the songs that made those places real. A Limited Edition event built around one of the most beloved guest artists ever to appear on this stage, Somewhere brings the Irish singer back to Florida with a program drawn from the emotional heart of Broadway and the screen. A principal singer with Celtic Thunder for nearly a decade, with six World #1 albums and two sold-out solo concerts at Carnegie Hall behind him, Cahill has a rare gift for making a large hall feel like a small room — and SCSO audiences have loved him for it since the first time he walked out here.
