UCI and Santa Ana High School Symphony Orchestras Combined Concert

FREE ADMISSION - PUBLIC WELCOME

“This collaboration has never been about developing musicians, it has always been about developing young people who have been valued and encouraged in a way that they can now see themselves going to college, continuing their education and taking advantage of opportunities. Music is how we are connecting with them, but this is bigger than music,” said Maestro Stephen Tucker, conductor of the UC Irvine (UCI) Claire Trevor School of the Arts Symphony Orchestra.

• exposing students to the arts at a college level
