SJSU's String Program boasts exceptional faculty members who are accomplished performing artists with deep expertise in music performance and education. The University Symphony Orchestra tackles professional-level repertoire, presenting at least four major concerts annually. This ensemble frequently joins forces with the vocal department to mount complete opera productions and choral masterpieces. Both singers and instrumentalists can compete in the yearly Concerto-Aria Competition for a chance to solo with the orchestra. Beyond large ensembles, numerous string players engage in chamber music, benefiting from weekly coaching sessions and performance chances. The University Collegium offers additional opportunities for early music performance.
