The Charleston Symphony Inclusion Fellowship is an intensive professional development and mentorship program for advancing talented individuals from backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in classical music. Since the fellowship’s founding in August 2021, it has been the Charleston Symphony’s avenue of pursuit in directly addressing institutional barriers and issues of representation, by building a direct career pipeline.

The Orchestral Fellowship employs up to five string musicians (2 violins, 1 viola, 1 cello, 1 bass) from a national audition for up to two full seasons, as members of the Charleston Symphony via participation in all applicable services and performances. All fellows are compensated according to the standard CSO per-service scale, in addition to travel compensation and per diem. Charleston-area residence is not required. Housing is provided to fellows residing outside of Charleston during service and concert weeks. Final number of programs and services dependent on fellow’s availability.
