Experience the arts at UAA with the inspiring 19th annual Symphony of Sounds concerts. UAA music majors compete to be part of this program, which is considered one of the best showcases for young musicians in Alaska.
One of the most unique concert experiences of the year, the Symphony of Sounds concerts deliver an extravaganza of musical entertainment in a non‐stop collage format. Every taste in music is satisfied with a wide range of musical styles that include classical, jazz, opera and musical theatre. The presentation includes a continuous variety of genres from large ensembles to the very best chamber groups and soloists selected by audition. All of the action happens in a seamless performance with the performers highlighted by special lighting effects and staging.
At the end of each performance, the audience is invited to participate in a silent auction featuring artwork, entertainment, travel and food, as well as a variety of goods and services. All net proceeds from ticket sales and the silent auctions benefit the Music Endowment to support the next generation of music leaders and teachers.
