Comprised of UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music's acclaimed string faculty and its most gifted students, UCLA Camarades is a versatile chamber ensemble that ranges from duos to full string orchestra. Since its inception in 2009, Camarades ensembles have performed at numerous chamber music series and venues throughout Los Angeles including UCLA’s Schoenberg Hall, LACMA’s Sundays Live, Trinity Lutheran Church in Manhattan Beach, the Dilijan Chamber Music Series at Zipper Hall, the Music Guild, as well as featured guests at the Los Angeles Philanthropic Committee for the Arts’ annual gala at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. Residencies at international festivals in the summer of 2012 and 2014 – in Yerevan, Armenia, and Tuscany, Italy – were particularly enriching and memorable experiences.
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 2022 - 23 Dobrow Series.
