Each year, the All-Star competition provides Music Department students with the opportunity to audition for the privilege of performing as soloists with the UCLA Philharmonia, the school's flagship orchestra. Join us in Schoenberg Hall this year for the 19th Annual All-Star Concert featuring the winners of Fall 2023's All-Star Competition.
* Update This year's All-Star Concert was dedicated to the memory of Antonio Lysy (1963-2024), who passed away just before this concert. We grieve the loss of our beloved colleague, teacher, mentor, and friend.

This event is made possible by the David and Irmgard Dobrow Fund. Classical music was a passion of the Dobrows, who established a generous endowment at The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music to make programs like this possible. We are proud to celebrate this program as part of the 2023 - 24 Dobrow Series.
