The UCI Symphony Orchestra is one of the premier large performance ensembles in the music department. The orchestra has been in existence since 1970, offering music majors, non-music majors, faculty and other community members an opportunity to study and perform symphonic music of the ages.
The orchestra’s regular concert performances (five or six per year), at Irvine Barclay Theatre or the Claire Trevor Theatre, include music from the standard repertoire as well as recently created works and world premieres.
