The La Jolla Symphony & Chorus Association is a performance ensemble affiliated with the University of California, San Diego, which performs six concert weekends each year at UCSD's Mandeville Auditorium, and special performances at other venues in Southern California.
The LJSCA is an independent, non-profit, 501(c)(3) corporation, comprised of volunteer musicians from all walks of life, including UCSD students, staff and faculty, as well as professional musicians — a diverse group with exceptional talent and passion for the music it performs.
The mission of the La Jolla Symphony and Chorus is to enrich the cultural life of San Diego through professional-caliber, financially accessible concerts of ground-breaking, traditional and contemporary classical music.
The LJS&C provides educational outreach to the community by bringing students to open rehearsals, concerts and music clinics. Through our Young Artists Competition and Thomas Nee Commission for new compositions, we also provide young musicians and composers with rare professional performance opportunities.
