Symphonic Soul

Music lives on in every part of the world, a rhythm in every phenomena, a melody in every oscillation, a passion in every heart. Music is the strongest form of magic, the shorthand of emotion, a vessel for true expression. Symphonic Soul sorcerers channel these inner notes and rhythms to create great songs of majesty, and devastate the field with their splendor.

Melodic Magic

Your link to music allows you to learn spells from the bard class. When your Spellcasting feature lets you learn or replace a sorcerer cantrip or a sorcerer spell of 1st level or higher, you can choose the new spell from the bard spell list or the sorcerer spell list. You must otherwise obey all the restrictions for selecting the spell, and it becomes a sorcerer spell for you.

Conductor of Battle

When you take this subclass at first level, you are able to channel your magic through a weapon. You gain proficiency in any single simple or martial melee weapon. If you’re proficient with a simple or martial melee weapon, you can use it as a spellcasting focus for your sorcerer spells.
